-- The US said offensive operations against Iran have ended, Bloomberg reported on Tuesday, even as another cargo vessel was targeted by strikes in the Strait of Hormuz.
"Operation Epic Fury is concluded," Secretary of State Marco Rubio said, adding that we have "achieved the objectives of that operation."
A British monitoring group reported a cargo ship was struck by an "unknown projectile," while the US said "more than 1,550 commercial vessels" remain stranded in the Persian Gulf, the report said.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian called renewed talks "impossible," saying US demands amount to "an equation that is impossible," according to Bloomberg.
