The United States is continuing to bombard Iran amid an intensifying standoff over the Strait of Hormuz. On Sunday, U.S. Central Command said the U.S. had struck 140 targets in Iran. In retaliation, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said they had targeted U.S. military facilities in Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Jordan. The escalating attacks come after Iran announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and President Trump declared the ceasefire was over.
On Sunday, U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres said he was “deeply concerned by the serious escalation.” He urged Iran and the United States to “urgently resume negotiations and to address outstanding issues through diplomacy.” We will have more on Iran after headlines.
