US continues strikes on Iran; Trump reiterates threat to strike 'very hard tonight'

The United States has continued its military strikes against Iran, while Iran's Revolutionary Guards asserted they conducted retaliatory attacks on American military installations in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan. These claims followed earlier reports of targeting US bases in the Gulf region. Concurrently, the US Vice President acknowledged "divergences" with Israel regarding the ongoing conflict. Former US President Donald Trump reiterated his intention for the US to "strike Iran hard again," with one report quoting him saying the US would "strike Iran very hard tonight" and "take total control of their oil and gas markets" after reports of a destroyed US helicopter. The United States has also issued warnings of additional severe strikes against Iran.
