> U.S. forces struck Iranian rocket launchers on the Strait of Hormuz on Sunday, their first military action in a month, ending a lull in the intermittent war that has lasted more than six months. Iran vowed retaliation for what it called a deadly attack and said it fired missiles at U.S. sites in Jordan.
