The Iranian Foreign Ministry's statements reflect the official government stance and may be biased towards portraying the U.S. negatively.

One day after the U.S. Navy attacked locations along the shores of Bandar Abbas, the Iranian Foreign Ministry issued a statement calling this action a gross violation of the ceasefire between the two countries and stated that such actions are the root of Tehran's 'deep suspicion' towards Washington. The relative restoration of internet connectivity in Iran to the global network has been welcomed by NetBlocks, the organization monitoring global internet connectivity, which wrote on Tuesday: 'Welcome back, Iran!'. Intense Israeli attacks on Lebanon continue. CENTCOM denied 'reports' about the resumption of ship escorts in the Strait of Hormuz.
