The latest developments in the Middle East war:
- US Navy 'acting like pirates' -
President Donald Trump said the US Navy was acting "like pirates" as he described an operation seizing a ship amid the tit-for-tat American blockade of Iranian ports.
"We... land on top of it and we took over the ship. We took over the cargo, took over the oil. It's a very profitable business," Trump told a rally in Florida.
"We're like pirates," he added to cheers from the crowd. "We're sort of like pirates. But we're not playing games."
- Troop withdrawal 'expected' -
