Iran live updates: Trump blames high gas prices on Ukraine, says Tehran wants a deal

An Iranian commercial vessel was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz early Sunday morning, leaving one person dead and four crew members wounded, according to Iranian state media.

The state-run Islamic Republic News Agency quoted the governor of Qeshm Island saying that an Iranian container ship was hit by an “unidentified projectile” near the island of Hengam.

The episode came as Iran prepared to meet with Gulf states in Oman on Monday to discuss safe passage for shipping traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.

The Saudi Civil Defense spokesperson said Saturday that a projectile fired by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen fell in the Al-Tawwal governorate in the Jazan region, which borders Houthi-controlled Yemen from the north along the Red Sea coast.

The attack injured two people and damaged a mosque, several buildings and vehicles, the spokesperson said in a statement posted to the Civil Defense's X account.

Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi said he had ordered an investigation into the operations command in Maysan province, on the border with Iran, and dismissed the province's commander after authorities confirmed that the attacks targeting a Saudi Arabian pipeline were launched from a site within the province.

President Donald Trump confirmed that he had a phone call with Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman during a brief bilateral greeting with the Taoiseach of Ireland, Micheál Martin, in Dublin on Saturday.

Asked about the call and what the U.S. is going to do, Trump avoided weighing in on what he spoke to MBS about or what next steps are.

"Well I have had a call with MBS. He's a good friend of mine and it's going to, I can just say, it's going to work out fine and dandy. It's going to be very good," Trump said.
