Summary
U.S. strikes on Iran have escalated dramatically, targeting areas north of Tehran and even firing on a ship attempting to breach a naval blockade, as the fragile ceasefire collapses. Iran retaliates with missile and drone strikes on U.S. allies in Bahrain, Jordan, and Kuwait, warning of broader attacks on regional infrastructure if the U.S. targets critical infrastructure like bridges and power plants. The Strait of Hormuz — a vital shipping chokepoint — is now a flashpoint, with shipping routes dangerously disrupted, oil prices climbing, and shippers avoiding the area altogether. Over 35 killed and more than 300 wounded in Iran, as tensions soar ahead of U.S. elections. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
