The US-Iran war has entered another dangerous phase after US Central Command said American forces destroyed five Iranian crude oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman and near Kharg Island. Washington said the strikes were retaliation for two alleged Iranian ballistic-missile attacks on a US Navy warship. Iran subsequently retaliated with missile strikes targeting a US military base in Jordan and claimed attacks against vessels in and around the Strait of Hormuz. The escalation has placed Iran's oil exports, Gulf shipping and global energy markets under renewed pressure, with crude prices moving higher as fears grow over a wider confrontation across the Middle East. #iran #iranwar #usiranwar #iranisraelwar #usa #irannews #usnews #middleeast #straitofhormuz #hormuz #oiltankers #oilcrisis #oilprices #gulf #gulfoman #khargisland #centcom #irgc #breakingnews #worldnews #geopolitics #militarynews #trump #middleeastcrisis In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay
