Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has said Tehran does not seek conflict but warned that it would respond decisively to any further attack.

In his first remarks since the US attack on Iran’s Larak Island, Pezeshkian made the comments before departing for Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, for a Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit.

Iran “will give a decisive response to the aggressors” if attacked, he said, according to Fars news agency.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says it has shot down a US MQ-9 drone over the Strait of Hormuz, according to Iran’s Mehr news agency.

The reported downing comes amid a sharp escalation between Tehran and Washington following US attacks on Iran and subsequent Iranian strikes on US military targets in the region.

Trump has posted an AI-generated video on Truth Social showing a simulated attack on Iran’s Kharg Island, a key hub for the country’s oil exports.

The video depicts an oil storage facility and tanker engulfed in explosions, viewed from an aircraft overhead. “Kharg Island being blown to smithereens!!! President DJT,” Trump wrote alongside the footage.

Kharg Island handled the bulk of Iran’s crude exports, making the facility a crucial link in the country’s oil industry and a major source of export revenue.

US Central Command has said its forces carried out a “limited, precise” operation against IRGC minelaying forces on Larak Island, saying they posed an imminent threat to shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

CENTCOM said the action was aimed at protecting civilian mariners, commercial vessels and the flow of global trade through the waterway.

CENTCOM also said 83 commercial vessels have been redirected since Washington reinstated its naval blockade of Iran on July 14, while three vessels have been disabled and two boarded.

The latest figures mark one additional vessel redirected since Friday, when the command reported a total of 82.

Iran's Revolutionary Guards launch ballistic missile attacks on two US bases in Jordan as senior lawmaker warns "retaliation is coming".

Jordan’s armed forces say they intercepted eight missiles that entered the country’s airspace on Monday, according to state television.

The missiles were destroyed before posing any threat to civilians or property, the army said in a statement.

Earlier, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it had struck the King Hussein and Azraq US airbases in Jordan with ballistic missiles in retaliation for a US attack on Iran’s Larak Island.

The IRGC said the attack involved missiles and drones targeting infrastructure and areas where fighter jets were stationed, claiming “heavy damage.”

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says it launched missile and drone attacks on two US bases in Jordan in retaliation for the US strike on Larak Island.

In a statement carried by Iranian media, the IRGC said the operation, dubbed “Punishment of the Aggressor”, targeted the King Hussein and Al Azraq bases, claiming it destroyed technical and repair infrastructure as well as fighter deployment sites and caused significant damage.

“Aggression and crimes will not solve the enemy’s desperation in attempting to weaken the Islamic Republic’s control over the Strait of Hormuz, and every attack will be met with even more devastating responses,” the IRGC said.

Yemeni government forces have said that they had seized a shipment of Iranian drone components in the Red Sea that was bound for the Houthi group.

Sadiq Dwaid, a military spokesman for the government-aligned National Resistance Forces, said on X that the seizure reflects “the vigilance of our forces in protecting our territorial waters and severing Iranian supply lines.”

The shipment was reportedly intercepted by Yemeni naval forces in the Red Sea while being transported to the Houthis.

Iran has launched attacks on US forces stationed in Jordan, Fox News reporter Trey Yingst said, citing a US source, in a sharp escalation of the confrontation. Nearly all incoming missiles have been intercepted so far, with no significant impact reported.

Iranian state television said missiles were launched from several parts of Iran towards targets across the region, signalling a potentially wider wave of attacks.

Oil prices have jumped more than 2 percent after US forces struck Iran’s Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz, injecting fresh volatility into energy markets.

The rise came as traders assessed the risk of further escalation around the strategic waterway, a critical route for global oil and fuel shipments.
