The United States started more attacks in northern Iran early Thursday.

For the first time in this fight, they hit targets near Tehran.

American forces also fired on a ship.

They said the ship tried to break the naval blockade on Iran.

Iran fought back with missiles and drones.

They attacked Bahrain, Jordan, and Kuwait.

Attacks have gone back and forth for days.

This has hurt the temporary deal to end the Iran war.

Iranian officials say U.S. attacks have killed more than 35 people.

They also say over 300 people are hurt.

The fight is about the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran closed it on February 28.

This made oil prices go up very high.

An adviser to Iran's supreme leader said control of the strait is "a very precious achievement."

U.S. President Donald Trump said Iran wants to settle.

He did not say more.

He also said Tehran let an American citizen go.

He called it a goodwill gesture.

Human rights lawyer Jared Genser said the person is Dena Karari.

She is a U.S.-Iranian citizen.

She was charged with espionage.

Iran did not say right away that it let her go.

The U.S. military said it stopped the oil tanker Belma.

It fired a missile into its smokestack.

The tanker did not listen to warnings.

Another attack hit a barracks in Sistan and Baluchestan province.

It killed seven soldiers.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard said it would stop all energy exports from the Middle East.

The price of Brent crude oil was above $85 a barrel on Thursday.

That is more than 15% higher than before the war.
