Last update: 2 minutes agoMiddle East Escalation: The US launched strikes on Iran targeting about 80 sites after Iran attacked commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz, with CENTCOM saying it hit air defenses, radar, command systems, anti-ship capabilities, and more than 60 IRGC boats; Iran quickly retaliated, claiming it struck 85 US-linked military targets in Bahrain and Kuwait and that air defenses downed a US drone. Ceasefire in doubt: Trump told reporters at a NATO summit that the Iran ceasefire is “over,” calling the deal a “waste of time,” while both sides trade accusations of memorandum violations and oil sanctions. Shipping disruption: Tankers and LNG carriers reportedly made U-turns after the renewed attacks, adding to supply fears as oil prices jumped. Regional fallout: Bahrain activated emergency sirens and urged people to seek safety as Kuwait reported confronting missile and drone attacks. Local Pacific logistics: In the Marianas, the US Coast Guard reopened the Port of Saipan to 24/7 commercial traffic, while teams cleared channel hazards and worked to relocate a buoy after storm damage.
