The US has carried out strikes on Iran’s Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz, US officials have told CBS, the BBC’s US partner.

The officials described the strikes as limited and defensive, and said they were in response to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) firing on a US aircraft. 

Iranian state news agency Irna reported explosions on Qeshm on Monday. The IRGC did not comment but said its forces had shot down two US MQM-170 drones south of the island and a US MQ-9 drone east of the Strait of Hormuz.

The US military has not commented on the strikes, which came as mediators stepped up their efforts to prevent a return to all-out war after the US midterm elections on Tuesday.

Trump has been facing falling polling numbers and pressure from within his Republican Party to end the war, which began when the US and Israel attacked Iran in February.

The US has carried out a series of ‘defensive strikes’ on Iranian locations near Hormuz, with explosions heard on Qeshm Island. The strikes come despite US Vice President JD Vance describing progress in talks with Iran. https://t.co/BzsLWbMKJB

A cyber attack on the Ukrainian emergency alert system could indicate “desperation” from Russia, according to cyber security expert Don Smith.

Russia has not claimed responsibility for the attack, while Ukraine has blamed the incident – which saw false warnings of nuclear attack sent to its citizens – on Russian interference, our correspondent in Kyiv reports.

Smith, of cyber security firm Sophos, says the attack could have been aimed at impacting the “mental resilience of the people of Ukraine”, which he says is key factor of Ukraine’s ability to defend itself against Russia. 

However, he says the “best information warfare” is not obvious or explicit, while this attack on Ukraine “very clearly is”, which “could indicate desperation from Russia”.

He adds that it is possible an individual account with access to the Ukrainian alert system was compromised, rather than the core system itself.

Ukraine and Russia have accused each other of hacking into systems used to send out emergency alerts to citizens, raising fears of a new escalation of digital and psychological warfare tactics. Read more: https://t.co/jsuHO9q4Lg https://t.co/CW8axkEVRC

FEMA and the FCC have the nationwide Emergency Alert System test set for 2:20 p.m. ET on Nov. 17, with Dec. 3 as backup; it hits broadcasts only, not phones, and it’s the check federal law requires every few years.

What’s different is everything around it. Britain launched a campaign on Oct. 22 telling 68 million people to keep three days of water, no-cook food and cash at home, with its defence secretary naming cyberattacks and state-sponsored threats; Germany is advising ten days; the EU has its 72-hour kit; and Washington has told the Gulf to brace for Iranian retaliation on energy and infrastructure after the midterms.

At least 39 people have died after two high-speed trains crashed in Spain.

One passenger described hearing a “massive roar” and an “enormous thud” when the crash occurred.

Miguel told COPE radio he had been travelling with several colleagues in the rear carriage of one of the trains involved at the time.

“We heard a massive roar, a truly enormous thud that went on for 10 seconds, as if the train ‌were about to derail,” he said, as reported by Reuters.

“Through the right-hand window, we could see a wrecked train – I imagine it must have been the other one,” he said.
