Trump orders new Iran attack after fiery NATO 'scum' comments
The United States launched additional strikes against Iran following alleged attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, escalating tensions despite a previously extended ceasefire. US Central Command said the operations targeted Iran’s ability to threaten navigation in the strategic waterway, bringing the total number of hit locations to more than 80. Speaking at a NATO summit in Turkey, President Donald Trump warned that relations with Tehran were approaching a choice between a new deal or war, comments that contributed to a sharp rise in oil prices. Ongoing diplomatic efforts have failed to stabilise conditions in the region, leaving the broader Middle East situation highly fragile.
