President Donald Trump ordered the U.S. military to shoot and kill Iranian boats in the Strait of Hormuz, amid rising tensions following the seizure of a tanker associated with Iranian oil smuggling. The situation escalates as the U.S. extends a ceasefire in Lebanon.
President Donald Trump stated that the U.S. is not in a rush to end the conflict with Iran, emphasizing that "the clock is ticking." Tensions remain high with military movements in the region, including the arrival of a third U.S. aircraft carrier.
Iran escalated tensions in the Strait of Hormuz by seizing three ships amid stalled diplomatic talks with the U.S. This incident has led to a significant increase in global oil prices, raising concerns over energy supply disruptions.
