Iran live updates: Tehran waiting for US response to 7-point proposal, Araghchi says

Eight Marines were recently hurt in an Iranian attack on a ship operating in the Strait of Hormuz, though the injuries were not significant, a U.S. official confirmed to ABC News.

The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations tracked that a commercial vessel was struck by “an unknown projectile” on Sept. 14 and no injuries were reported at the time.

NBC News was first to report the previously undisclosed injuries to the Marines.

U.S. Central Command declined to comment on the report.

U.S. Central Command on Monday disputed a claim from an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander asserting that Tehran enjoys "full control over the Strait of Hormuz."

"This is FALSE," CENTCOM said in a post to X.

"Iran has no navy because American forces sank it. And Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz as evidenced by the thousands of ships that have passed through freely along with more than 1 billion barrels of oil just over the past few months," CENTCOM said.

Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan arrived in Washington early on Monday morning ahead of talks with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, according to the Saudi foreign ministry.

The two will "review bilateral relations and discuss regional and international developments," the ministry said in a statement.

Saudi Arabia is currently in an escalating conflict with the Iran-aligned Houthis in Yemen, as it supports the internationally recognized Yemeni government's military in its fight against the group.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi asserted that Tehran is prepared to resume war with the U.S. and said it will stand firm "even if it comes to a doomsday war."

Asked whether diplomacy has failed, Araghchi told NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday that there is always hope but repeatedly cast doubts on the Trump administration's intentions.

"[T]here is always hope for diplomacy. But we have no reason, to be honest with you, we have no reason to come back to diplomacy and engage with this administration once again, because of their behavior in the past two years," Araghchi said.

"We stand firm in the face of any aggression against us, even if it comes to a doomsday war," he said, adding "at the same time, we are ready for diplomacy."

"Now there is a very reasonable plan on the table. If they reject it for no reason, this is their fault," Araghchi said.

"We are ready for diplomacy. We are ready for war at the same time," he added.
