The US says it has hit "dozens" of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz
The military says it struck "air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats", using aircraft, ships, and drones - including "one-way attack sea drones for the first time"
"The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade," the US military says. "Iran does not control it"
In response, Iran says it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait, and also radar systems in Oman
Last week, Donald Trump said the US-Iran ceasefire was "over" - adding that Iran's leadership were "scum"
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says it has attacked radar systems in Oman as part of its retaliatory strikes against the US, Iranian state media reports.
It follows earlier statements in which they said they had attacked sites in Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan.
The attacks came in retaliation to overnight attacks made by the US on dozens of Iranian military installations.

Oil prices jumped at the start of trading, following news Iran had hit commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz, with the US then carrying out more attacks on Iran.
One fifth of the world's oil and gas usually flows through the key waterway south of Iran which the country had effectively closed in response to the start of the US-Israel war with Iran at the end of February.
Brent crude, the global benchmark wholesale oil price, surged almost 5% early on Monday to over $79 a barrel.
Despite the rise, prices remain far below the near $120 a barrel peak reached during the height of the war.
Before the conflict began, oil was trading at around $70 a barrel.
Following overnight strikes by the US, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says it attacked several bases linked to the US in Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan.
Via Iranian state media, the group says it struck two US-linked air bases in Kuwait, as well as army infrastructure and a drone command centre in Bahrain, and the Prince Hassan Air Base in Jordan.
Bahrain's interior ministry has issued several warnings over the last four hours, urging citizens to head to safe locations.
The Jordanian military shot down four Iranian missiles that entered its airspace on Monday, a Jordanian source tells the AFP news agency.
Meanwhile the Kuwaiti military says it "intercepted hostile aerial targets" within the country's airspace.

In a separate post, published at 03:30 BST, Centcom said it had "completed" its attacks.
Is said it had struck air defence-systems, coastal radar sites, naval vessels and missile and drone sites.
"The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade. Iran does not control it," said Centcom.
"US forces are postured and prepared to ensure that freedom of navigation remains available to commercial shipping despite Iran’s continued unwarranted aggression."
The US said its attacks involved "fighter aircraft, naval vessels, one-way attack aerial drones, and one-way attack sea drones for the first time".

The US military has carried out a wave of strikes on Iran overnight - targeting dozens of Iranian military installations, including air-defence systems, coastal radar facilities, and missile and drone sites.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it retaliated with strikes on US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain.
The US says the attacks are a response to Iranian attacks on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz - Iran says the waterway is closed until further notice, while the US insists it is open.
In a statement detailing Sunday night's strikes, Centcom said US forces are "postured and prepared to ensure that freedom of navigation remains available to commercial shipping".
In June, both sides agreed a ceasefire as part of a "memorandum of understanding" - but last week, Donald Trump said the ceasefire was "over", while calling Iran's leadership "scum".
