President Donald Trump on Friday blamed Iran for a drone strike on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz, calling it a "foolish violation" of the ceasefire.
The president is expected to speak at the Faith and Freedom Coalition Policy Conference at 1:30 p.m. EDT. Watch live in our video player above.
He did not identify the ship; however, the British military said Thursday that a vessel was hit by a projectile off Oman. This comes at a fragile time, as the U.S. and Iran are negotiating an interim peace deal.
Trump also threatened a 100% tariff on imports from any nation that taxes digital services from U.S. companies, specifically singling out Europe. His post on social media said those nations are considering "imminent" taxes, and that the tariff would override any previously negotiated trade agreements.
