Trump Threatens Iran Following New Wave of Attacks on Gulf States and Israel

Iran launched nearly 50 drones in attacks on Gulf states including Saudi Arabia, while Brent crude oil prices surged about 40% since the conflict began, officials said.

  • Posting online on Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump declared 'Iran's Navy is gone...' and called it 'What a great honor it is to do so!'
  • With control of the strait, Iran's ambassador to Tunisia Mir Masoud Hosseinian said Iranian naval forces 'have established full control' and carried out precise strikes, Thursday.
  • U.S. forces reported striking more than 6,000 targets including over 30 minelaying vessels, while Israeli warplanes killed 15 in Beirut, Lebanon, and drone strikes wounded French troops and British and American personnel at Irbil base.
  • $100 per barrel pushed markets as global stocks sank and the U.S. Treasury Department eased sanctions on Russian oil for the next month.
  • A fifth of the world's traded oil flows through the Persian Gulf waterway, with about 20 million barrels per day passing the Strait of Hormuz and about 125 million barrels loaded last week; Iran's secretive new leader's vow to open 'other fronts' suggests wider conflict risks.
