Pentagon says Iran ceasefire holds despite exchanges in Strait of Hormuz

Despite recent exchanges of fire in the Strait of Hormuz, the ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran remains in place. Iranian forces have launched attacks on American forces, but these actions are below the threshold of restarting major combat operations. The Trump administration is implementing ‘Project Freedom’ to secure the free flow of commerce through the waterway, a temporary U.S. operation.
