U.S. and Iran Edge Toward War | Montreal News
Description
U.S. launches ninth straight night of airstrikes against Iran after another American soldier dies in Iraq, as Iran retaliates by striking U.S. allies — escalating tensions toward full-scale war. A fragile peace deal has collapsed, shipping in the Strait of Hormuz is crippled, and oil prices soar past $90 a barrel. The human toll mounts: 17 U.S. service members dead, Iran claims 50 killed and 500 wounded. A tanker caught fire near Oman — Iran blames U.S. strikes — while Washington imposes a naval blockade to halt Iranian oil exports. Despite the violence, U.S. officials say diplomacy remains on the table — though talks are stalled.
