US escalates Iran strikes as Hormuz crisis deepens
Published 3 weeks ago
Description
The United States has intensified military strikes against Iran, with President Donald Trump posting video of a destroyed bridge near Tehran and warning of further attacks. Iran continues to block the Strait of Hormuz as approximately 40 international ministers, including Australia's Penny Wong, met to discuss diplomatic solutions to reopen the crucial shipping waterway. Trump has threatened to withdraw from NATO over European allies' reluctance to assist in reopening the strait, prompting the NATO head to schedule talks in Washington next week.
