US continues strikes on Iran as Trump issues new threats

Military actions in the Middle East persist, with the United States continuing its strikes against Iran. Iran's Revolutionary Guards assert they conducted retaliatory attacks on American bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan, following earlier claims of targeting US Gulf bases. The US Vice President acknowledged "divergences" with Israel concerning the ongoing conflict. Former US President Donald Trump stated the US would "strike Iran hard again" and "take total control of their oil and gas markets" after a US helicopter was reportedly destroyed. The US also warned of further severe strikes against Iran. Israel's military leadership has reiterated its readiness to act against Hezbollah and deliver further blows to Iran. Sources: Le Monde
