US Iran War | US Launches Fresh Strikes On Iran After Hormuz Closure, Gulf Region Tensions Spiral
West Asia is witnessing a sharp escalation after the US launched fresh strikes on Iran following Tehran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's IRGC claimed it shut the vital waterway after targeting a vessel it accused of taking an unauthorised route. Tehran also launched missiles toward Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar and the UAE. The US responded with another wave of strikes, with CENTCOM claiming 140 targets were hit, further deepening fears of a wider regional conflict.
