People take part in an anti-U.S. and anti-Israel rally, amid a ceasefire between U.S. and Iran, in Tehran, Iran, April 19.

Iran has fired on three ships in the Strait of Hormuz and seized two of them. The intensification of Iran's assault on shipping in a waterway crucial to global energy supplies comes a day after U.S. President Donald Trump extended a ceasefire but pressed on with an American blockade of Iranian ports. The White House says the seizures didn't violate ceasefire terms but the latest salvos complicate efforts to bring the United States and Iran together for talks to end the war. The effective closure of the strait has already sent gas prices skyrocketing worldwide and raised the cost of food and a wide array of other products.
