US forces have carried out fresh strikes against Iran overnight, targeting air defence and surveillance sites near the Strait of Hormuz. The attacks, which the US military described as proportional... It came just hours after President Trump blamed Tehran for shooting down an American military helicopter off the coast of Oman.
ABC's chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl was on the phone with President Trump when the strikes were announced.
The president made it clear to me that these U.S. strikes on Iran are specifically in response to Iran's downing of that Apache helicopter. He brought up the peace deal that he is trying to negotiate with the Iranians. It seemed clear to me that even as he was ordering U.S. attacks on Iran, he still believes he can get a peace deal with the Iranians.

Chapter 2: What recent military actions has the US taken against Iran?
The violence is the latest in a string of incidents in the UK in recent months to have stoked racial tensions.
The British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, is preparing to announce a ban on children younger than 16 using social media. The government's technology secretary, Liz Kendall, says thinking has hardened after seeing nine out of ten parents would support the move.
The tougher attitude towards technology comes as Bloomberg's Emily Chang has been speaking to the two siblings who founded Anthropic, the AI giant which promises to take a more ethical approach to Silicon Valley. Daniela Amadei says they need to succeed where social media firms have failed.
If the social media companies could go back in time and see the world that they see today, would they do anything differently? I like to think the answer to that is yes, I don't know. If we sort of project some of the challenges that the social media companies have faced around child welfare, mental health, election integrity, all of these topics, we're really lucky that we're second.
We view it as our job to try and proactively think about all of the things that could go wrong, because if we don't, who's going to?
Anthropics President Danielle Amadé speaking there to the circuit with Emily Chang for Bloomberg. The UK's proposed social media ban is expected to be part of a series of policy announcements in coming weeks from Keir Starmer, whose leadership is seen as under threat.
Well, Anthropic is releasing a version of its Mythos model without cyber capabilities. The latest iteration is called Fable 5 and has guardrails preventing responses to certain queries, including those related to cybersecurity and biology. Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amadei, says that some in the tech world aren't consistent in their approach to regulation.
As soon as they see the first real danger, which I've been expecting all along, there's all this talk of, like, nationalization and the government should just seize it. Come on, folks here, you're yo-yoing from, like, the most extreme anti-regulatory, if you look at us the wrong way, you're destroying the industry, to, you know, this completely communist, the government should grab it all.
We need a more sensible, moderate approach.
