Iran-US war latest: Trump threatens to hit civilian targets in Iran as US resumes Strait of Hormuz blockade

The US has escalated its confrontation with Iran by launching additional strikes and reinstating its naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global shipping route. President Trump's threats to target Iranian civilian infrastructure add a dangerous layer to the tensions. This aggressive stance by the US not only heightens the risk of a broader conflict but also threatens global oil supply stability, as the Strait of Hormuz is pivotal for transporting oil from the Middle East to the rest of the world. The move underscores the urgent need for diplomatic solutions to prevent a potential war.
