Iran and the US have traded strikes after American forces attacked two rocket launchers on Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz. The first known US strikes on Iran since late July killed two people and injured two others, according to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which vowed "response and punishment". US Central Command said it had taken "limited, precise action" against "minelaying forces posing an imminent threat in the Strait of Hormuz".
