Estados Unidos bombardeó Irán tras el ataque a un buque en el estrecho de Ormuz, mientras en Washington se firma un acuerdo tripartito

El Ejército estadounidense bombardeó este viernes a Irán como represalia por un ataque que la República Islámica había realizado el jueves a un buque de carga en el estrecho de Ormuz, lo que complica aún más la débil tregua en Medio Oriente, mientras en Washington se firmaba un acuerdo trilateral entre el gobierno de Estados Unidos, Israel y Líbano para frenar los enfrentamientos en esa región.
El ataque fue confirmado por el Comando Central de Estados Unidos (Centcom) que señaló que fue ejecutado por aviones que atacaron almacenes de drones y misiles iraníes, así como bases costeras de radares.
El Centcom acusó a Irán de «violar el alto al fuego» y dijo que su acción fue «una respuesta contundente» al ataque del jueves de Irán contra el buque M/V Ever Lovely, con bandera de Singapur, mientras estaba saliendo del estrecho de Ormuz a lo largo de la costa de Omán.
«La agresión injustificada contra el transporte marítimo comercial por parte de las fuerzas iraníes violó claramente el alto el fuego», añadió en su comunicado el Centcom y advirtió que «el comportamiento peligroso de Irán socavó la libertad de navegación en un momento en que el comercio fluye cada vez más a través de este corredor comercial internacional de vital importancia».
El presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, había acusado esta mañana a Irán de una violación «insensata» del alto el fuego por lanzar «al menos cuatro drones de ataque unidireccional contra barcos que transitaban por el estrecho de Ormuz».
El incidente ocurrió a 7,5 millas náuticas al sureste de Dahit, en Omán, según la Agencia británica de Operaciones de Comercio Marítimo (UKMTO), que recomendó precaución a los buques en la vía, por donde pasa el 20 % del crudo global.
Este sería el primer ataque registrado en la zona desde que Estados Unidos e Irán firmaron la semana pasada un memorando de entendimiento para acabar con las hostilidades y reabrir el tráfico en Ormuz, en lo que negocian un acuerdo final que aborde el programa nuclear iraní.
El Centcom aseguró que las fuerzas estadounidenses «continúan brindando coordinación y apoyo para el paso seguro de las embarcaciones comerciales que transitan por el estrecho».
El vicepresidente JD Vance advirtió que Estados Unidos responderá a cualquier ataque de Irán con «violencia» y recordó que «Irán firmó un acuerdo de alto el fuego. Nosotros lo hemos respetado. Si tienen desacuerdos sobre cómo se está aplicando el memorando de entendimiento, pueden levantar el teléfono. Pero la violencia será respondida con violencia».
En Washington se firmó un acuerdo trilateral en busca de la paz en Medio Oriente
En medio de la compleja red de conflictos históricos que lleva décadas en Medio Oriente, autoridades de Israel y Líbano firmaron este viernes un acuerdo bajo el auspicio de Estados Unidos en busca de la paz que se ve complicada por la presencia de la agrupación terrorista Hezbolá en el sur libanés.
El secretario de Estado, Marco Rubio, destacó que este acuerdo daba «un marco para una paz y una seguridad duraderas», aunque admitió que «es el comienzo del comienzo. Queda mucho trabajo por delante».
El primer ministro israelí, Benjamín Netanyahu, celebró el documento como una victoria contra Irán, mientras Teherán sostiene que el conflicto de Israel en Líbano contra su aliado Hezbolá es inseparable de la guerra más amplia, y debe formar parte del acuerdo final que están negociando Washington y Teherán.
Netanyahu afirmó que, en virtud del acuerdo, se permitiría al ejército libanés tomar el control de «dos zonas piloto» para empezar a asumir el control de partes del sur de Líbano, cerca del río Litani, a unos treinta kilómetros de la frontera con Israel.
El presidente libanés, Joseph Aoun, celebró el acuerdo como «un primer paso» hacia la restauración de la soberanía de Líbano, sin «ocupación», «subordinación» ni «tutela».
esde el sur de Líbano, el diputado del Hezbolá Hassan Fadlallah puso reparos y estimó que aplicar el trato entraña un riesgo de «guerra civil».
Las «autoridades libanesas no podrán imponer la aplicación del acuerdo firmado en Washington a menos que se encaminen, con apoyo estadounidense, hacia una guerra civil», afirmó.

Cops drop murder probe after coroner rules man’s bloody stabbing death was freak accident

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A British man who was believed to have been murdered after he was found slumped over on a blood-soaked bench last year actually passed out drunk on a knife in his own bag, officials said this week.
Authorities initially believed Robert Brown, 57, was stabbed to death after he was found on Aug. 1, 2025, in Northampton, England, according to reports from the Northampton Chronicle and Echo.

Three people were eventually arrested in connection with his death and later released. A coroner on Thursday ruled Brown’s death a «tragic accident.»
Investigators believe Brown, who authorities said had alcohol dependence issues, fell into a deep sleep and put his weight on his bag, resulting in the knife piercing his body.

The blade penetrated the bag and all three layers of Brown’s clothing, slashing his arm and leaving him to bleed out as he slept, authorities said.
Brown’s alcoholism made him vulnerable to blood loss, experts said at a court hearing.

Northamptonshire Police dropped the murder inquiry in February, saying Brown’s death was likely self-inflicted. Investigators noted that there was no apparent motive to murder Brown.
«We have reviewed the extensive amount of information gathered as part of the investigation, including all forensic submissions, and can confirm the evidence does not support the hypothesis that his death was a homicide,» police said at the time.

‘Damning silence’: Swing-seat Democrat stays quiet after AOC voices support

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A Democratic House hopeful vying for one of the nation’s most competitive districts is staying silent after Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., voiced support for her campaign.
Ocasio-Cortez, a leftist firebrand with growing influence in the Democratic Party, congratulated former Biden administration official Cait Conley on her primary victory in a social media post Wednesday.
«I look forward to working together as a delegation as we fight for working families across New York,» Ocasio-Cortez wrote.
The post also celebrated a Democrat vying to succeed retiring Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., alongside three socialist candidates backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
RISING SOCIALIST STARS ON TRACK TO CONGRESS: WHO ARE DARIALIZA AVILA CHEVALIER, BRAD LANDER AND CLAIRE VALDEZ?

Conley has yet to comment on Ocasio-Cortez’s support or address the trio of far-left candidates — longtime New York official Brad Lander, state Assembly member Claire Valdez, D-N.Y., and activist Darializa Avila-Chevalier — who have called for abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), are outspoken critics of Israel and have vowed to advance the Palestinian cause in Congress.
Conley’s general election opponent, Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., insists she should have to answer for it.
«Which is it, Cait: do you reject AOC and the candidates who want to abolish ICE, defund the police, and tear down our borders, or do you embrace them?» Lawler’s campaign manager Ciro Riccardi said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
«The Hudson Valley deserves an answer, and so far all we’ve heard is your damning silence,» he continued.
Lander and Avila-Chevalier previously called for defunding the police, while the latter has continued to advocate for abolishing prisons and stopping all deportations. Avila-Chevalier also reposted a tweet denying Israel’s right to exist and helped form a pro-Palestinian group at Columbia University that called for «the total eradication of Western civilization.»
The three Mamdani-backed candidates are expected to double the ranks of the left-wing group known as the «Squad,» an informal bloc closely aligned with Ocasio-Cortez, who also supports abolishing ICE.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Conley campaign for comment.

DEM CANDIDATE CLEARS CROWDED FIELD TO FACE TRUMP-BACKED INCUMBENT IN NY
The scrutiny comes after Conley avoided criticizing the socialist candidates during an interview with MS NOW on Thursday.
Asked about socialist candidates who support prison abolition and have suggested the United States deserved 9/11, Conley talked about her own background rather than directly addressing the question.
«I joined the Army and went to West Point because of 9/11 because I watched the suffering and pain that we as a nation, we as a state, we as the Hudson Valley, experienced that day,» Conley said. «And so when you talk about the American government’s responsibility to the people, it is to keep it safe.»
«While, you know, folks were elected down in New York City, in New York-17, Democratic voters chose a West Point grad and 16-year Army combat veteran to be their representative in this fight this fall,» Conley added, referring to herself.
Aber Kawas, a socialist and pro-Palestinian activist who won a Democratic primary for a New York State Senate seat Tuesday, appeared to justify 9/11 in a resurfaced 2017 video.
Conley has previously faced scrutiny over her role on former President Joe Biden’s national security team. Lawler has argued that she downplayed her alleged involvement in the former president’s botched 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal, which coincided with her time on the National Security Council.
The battleground race is expected to be one of the most hotly-contested races in the country, with national Republicans expected to aggressively defend Lawler’s bid for a third House term.

The nonpartisan Cook Political Report rates the contest as a «toss-up» after shifting the race in favor of Democrats earlier this year.
In 2024, former Vice President Kamala Harris narrowly won the purple district, where Democrats hold a sizable voter registration advantage.
