Iran claims to have successfully concentrated a US aircraft carrier using long-range missile technology. Meanwhile, a more serious attack on commercial ships has been reported in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has explicitly issued a "cross-border retaliation threat" in response to the US's secondary aviation sanctions.

If the current reports are true, especially regarding Iran's successful attack on the US aircraft carrier, such a provocative attack is indeed unfavorable to the current US-Iran mediation trend, raising the threshold for mediation and resuming negotiations.
