By GhanaSummary NewsroomSouth Africa

Iran says it attacked 10 ships near the Strait of Hormuz after the United States (US) sank five Iranian oil tankers, ‌in the biggest wave of attacks on shipping by both sides since the start of the six-month-old war.

The incidents follow a month of relative calm, during which the US has sought to pressure Iran through economic means.

Iran said it had fired ballistic missiles at a US military base in ​Jordan.
