Hegseth: Today Will Be Most Intense Day of Iran Strikes; Markets Rebound After Trump Says War Could End Soon
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said on March 10 that U.S. airstrikes against Iran will reach their most intense level on Tuesday. He said the operation is focused on three main objectives: destroying Iran’s missile stockpiles and launch systems, eliminating its naval capabilities, and preventing the country from obtaining nuclear weapons. Hegseth also said President Donald Trump will make the decision on when to end the war.
U.S. stocks are rising after President Trump indicated that the war against Iran could be short-lived. Oil prices briefly shot to their highest level since 2022, but later fell on the news that the war may not last much longer.
