War of words: Trump, Iran trade claims of missile strikes in the Strait of Hormuz • FRANCE 24

Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz escalated Monday after Donald Trump announced "Project Freedom," to help "guide" ships stranded by Iran's closure of the crucial waterway. Iran said the US had "disregarded" its warning shots and that it had struck a US frigate with 2 missiles. Washington outright denied this, and said it had managed to transit the Strait, which again Tehran rebuked, with both sides trading claims of attacks. Vedika Bahl goes through this war of words in Truth or Fake.
