US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Tuesday that the United States "does not seek confrontation" in the Strait of Hormuz, given that the truce with the Islamic Republic has held so far, but that it will respond in a "devastating" manner to any Iranian attack targeting shipping traffic. Hegseth's warning came the day after the United States began an operation that it said was to facilitate the passage of commercial ships through the Strait of Hormuz, through which Iran imposes restrictions in response to the US-Israeli war.
