🇺🇸🇮🇷 Tensions in the Middle East have sharply escalated after the United States launched a fresh wave of strikes against Iran, following an attack on a Cyprus-flagged container ship in the Strait of Hormuz.
The vessel reportedly suffered serious damage and caught fire, while one crew member remains missing. The US military said the strikes were carried out in response to the attack blamed on Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
Meanwhile, the IRGC has again declared the strategic Strait of Hormuz closed “until further notice”, raising fresh concerns over global shipping and energy supplies.
💥 Iranian state media also reported that an explosion was heard in eastern Tehran province, though the cause and exact location remained unclear.
🕊️ Amid the escalating conflict, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in Muscat, Oman, for talks, as diplomatic efforts continue to prevent a further widening of the war.
🌍 The world is closely watching the rapidly developing situation in the Middle East.
