US strikes on Iran revive Hormuz shipping crisis and a constitutional fight in Washington

A trilateral committee in Beirut and a war-option memo in Washington arrived in the same hour on 30 June. The shipping lane and the Constitution are now running on the same clock.

Desk note: Monexus ran this story as an investigation because the available source material is a wire feed dominated by official statements and shipping-flow reporting, with no Iranian-government response and no leaked text of the underlying ceasefire. The article foregrounds the operational and constitutional facts that the feed supports and flags the specific claims, including adversary statements, legal text, and casualty figures, that the feed does not. The Khanna quote is reported as a position rather than as a winning argument; the maritime incident is reported as the trigger rather than as the war itself.
