It has now been nearly a month since President Trump signed that short-term peace agreement with Iran, but after days of back-and-forth strikes, as you said, the ceasefire is now unraveling.
The Iranians this morning say the agreement has, quote, entered a crisis stage.
Now, overnight, the US launching a new round of strikes against Iran, the fourth series of attacks in less than a week.
Iran then responding with a barrage of strikes aimed at American military assets in the Middle East.
Now, these fresh attacks are coming amid mixed messages about the Strait of Hormuz after targeting commercial ships in the critical waterway for days.
Iran declaring it's closing the Strait of Hormuz, but President Trump uh says that's not the case.
He insists that it is open.
Reopening the strait, of course, was at the heart uh of this memorandum of understanding that was intended to buy more time to negotiate a longer-term lasting nuclear deal, the issue at the heart of this conflict.
But, the two sides haven't even been able to get to that point amid these escalating back-and-forth strikes, Robin.
>> And, Mary, how is this affecting gas prices back at home?
>> Yeah, well, certainly all of these strikes are are moving oil prices up as we are seeing traffic stalled through the Strait of Hormuz and slowing down.
This morning, oil prices moving higher about 3% and Americans are starting to see the effects of this.
They're feeling this.
The average gallon of gas now $3.81.
That's up 9 cents, Robin, since last week.
