US President Donald Trump has warned that Iran is “going to be hit” as the US intensifies its strikes. The US claims that Iran’s new leader was wounded and likely disfigured during the attacks.
Israel also says it carried out large-scale strikes across Tehran, targeting various military sites. Meanwhile, a refueling aircraft crash in Iraq resulted in the deaths of all six crew members on board. Globally, oil prices have risen again, with Brent crude settling above $100 a barrel for the second day.
The conflict between the US and Iran has escalated, with Trump vowing that today’s strikes will be the heaviest so far. The situation remains tense as the world waits to see how this crisis unfolds.
