U.S. and Iran truce tested over the Strait of Hormuz, threatening to reignite conflict

from PBS News Hour - World · host PBS News

The tenuous truce between the U.S. and Iran was tested Monday, as American ships clearing a lane in the Strait of Hormuz came under fire and sank Iranian boats. Iran also fired drones and missiles at a key oil terminal in the United Arab Emirates, spooking markets and raising concerns that war could resume. Nick Schifrin reports.
