Donald Trump is accusing Iran of 'foolishly' breaking its ceasefire agreement with the US after a recent drone attack targeting cargo ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
'The Islamic Republic of Iran shot at least four One Way Attack Drones at Ships transversing the Strait of Hormuz,' the President posted on Friday afternoon.
'One of the Drones solidly hit the upper deck of a large and very expensive cargo carrying ship. Damage was done, but the Ship was able to proceed on its way.'
Trump continued saying that US forces 'knocked down three other drones' in the bombardment.
'This is a foolish violation of our Ceasefire Agreement,' the Republican added.
Vice President JD Vance traveled to Switzerland last weekend to negotiate with Iran and mediators from Pakistan and Qatar.
The memorandum of understanding signed by the US and Iran in Switzerland stipulates that vessels must be free to transit the Strait of Hormuz unabated.
The Islamic Republic's fresh strikes on ships in the strait are a direct violation of the ceasefire agreement signed between the US and Iran over the weekend.
