Trump says 'no damage' in Hormuz, urges SKorea to join mission

In a Truth Social post, Trump also made no mention of apparent attacks on the United Arab Emirates and Oman, in an apparent effort to downplay tensions in the face of surging oil prices.

The developments have shaken an already fragile ceasefire, with US warships also moving through the crucial waterway Monday in what Trump says is an effort to protect shipping.

"Iran has taken some shots at unrelated Nations with respect to the Ship Movement, PROJECT FREEDOM, including a South Korean Cargo Ship. Perhaps it’s time for South Korea to come and join the mission!" wrote Trump.

"Other than the South Korean Ship, there has been, at this moment, no damage going through the Strait."

Trump said US forces had "shot down" seven small Iranian military boats. A US admiral earlier said six such vessels were destroyed, but Tehran denied any had been sunk.
