President Donald Trump announced "major combat operations" against Iran on Feb. 28, with massive joint U.S.-Israeli strikes targeting military, government and infrastructure sites.
Following the announcement of a two-week ceasefire, initial U.S.-Iran talks in Pakistan in April failed to reach a peace deal.
Trump later announced the open-ended extension of the ceasefire and the continuation of a U.S. blockade until negotiations are concluded "one way or the other."

IRGC claims to have completely closed Strait of Hormuz
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed it has completely closed the Strait of Hormuz due to U.S. strikes in Iran.
The IRGC said the strait is "declared closed to all vessels, including oil tankers and commercial ships, due to security concerns, and any passage will be targeted," according to a statement published by state media.
The strait is closed until further notice, the IRGC Navy said while alleging the U.S. has repeatedly violated the ceasefire.

Trump huddled with national security team ahead of latest round of strikes
Ahead of the latest round of U.S. strikes, President Donald Trump huddled with key members of his national security team to discuss the scope of the attacks as well as the anticipated impact on negotiations, according to two U.S. officials.
One official said that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other top administration officials have been in contact with their counterparts in the Gulf states as they brace for what is widely expected to be a larger retaliatory response from Iran than what occurred Tuesday.
Another official said the Qatari delegation that traveled to Iran earlier (and has since left) did so as part of a last-ditch effort to preserve what remained of the ceasefire, but that they were unable to demonstrate enough meaningful progress to make a case for more time.
The Qatari mediators are expected to keep the lines of communication open as the administration ratchets up kinetic pressure on Iran to come to the table.
