Trump confirms new US strikes on Iran’s Qeshm Island
President Donald Trump confirmed US strikes on Iran's Qeshm Island on 6 November 2026, calling them minor hits on air defence systems in the first strikes since the 3 November midterms dealt his party a blow. Iranian state media reported explosions and said its forces downed an American MQ-9 drone, while Trump says talks with Tehran are making progress and Qatar dismisses claims the negotiations have failed.
