DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) \u2014 Iran on Tuesday denounced U.S. strikes<\/span> a day earlier as a sign of \u201cbad faith and unreliability\u201d as negotiations continue toward a possible deal<\/span> to end the war<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The U.S. military has characterized Monday\u2019s strikes in southern Iran as defensive, saying targets included missile launch sites and boats placing mines, and said the U.S. acted with \u201crestraint\u201d in light of the weekslong ceasefire.<\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s foreign ministry called the strikes a ceasefire violation and warned that Washington would bear responsibility for \u201call consequences,\u201d without details.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Islamic Republic of Iran will leave no act of aggression unanswered,\u201d it added in a statement.<\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guard on Tuesday said it had shot down and deterred drones and a fighter jet that entered its airspace, according to Iran\u2019s official Mizan news agency, which did not specify when the incident occurred.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

It wasn\u2019t immediately clear what the developments would mean for negotiations. The strikes came after Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf went to Qatar as part of the talks, which U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday were \u201cproceeding nicely.\u201d<\/p>\n

The strikes were the latest flare-up in the fragile ceasefire that began April 7 and has largely held.<\/p>\n

Negotiations center in part on the Strait of Hormuz, the crucial waterway off southern Iran through which a fifth of the world\u2019s crude oil and natural gas passed before the war began with U.S.-Israeli strikes in February. Tehran retaliated by effectively closing the strait, stranding hundreds of ships and shocking the global economy.<\/p>\n

The strait has become a powerful lever for Tehran in talks, joining the long-running issue of Iran\u2019s nuclear program and highly enriched uranium. Iran in turn wants the U.S. to lift its military blockade of Iranian ports that began on April 17.<\/p>\n

The strait also is cause for growing concern as supplies of fertilizer are also badly affected for vulnerable global farmers.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWhat we are witnessing today is not only a geopolitical crisis, it is a systemic shock to the global agrifood system,\u201d the director-general of the U.N.’s Food and Agriculture Organization, Qu Dongyu, said Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Trump has introduced a new angle in negotiations for a deal on the war, saying any agreement to end the war should include a requirement for several additional countries, including Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, to join the Abraham Accords<\/span>, a series of U.S.-brokered diplomatic, economic and security agreements aimed at normalizing relations with Israel.<\/p>\n

Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates became the first countries to join in 2020; Sudan, Morocco and Kazakhstan have followed. Egypt and Jordan already formally recognize Israel and have long-standing peace treaties. Turkey first recognized Israel in 1949.<\/p>\n

Israel\u2019s conduct against Palestinians, including in the war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, has alienated Gulf Arab states and the wider Muslim world, but Trump has been keen to build on the Abraham Accords, forged during his first term. He even has suggested that Iran eventually could sign on.<\/p>\n
