Cooper said the action was taken in response to an Iranian attack targeting ships the U.S. had been protecting in the Strait of Hormuz. He declined to say whether a cease-fire with Iran had ended but added that Iran initiated the aggressive actions. Cooper also said U.S. forces had secured a safe, mine-free transit corridor through the Strait of Hormuz and had contacted dozens of shipping companies to encourage them to resume voyages.
