US and Israel launch fresh attacks on Iran as conflict escalates

Iranian troops gave an aggressive signal to Iraqi Kurds.

One of the spokesmen had warned that any alliance with the United States is death. Iran threatens to destroy all their infrastructure and squash them such that even its safety will be eradicated. Iran was again struck by Israel with huge airstrikes on Tehran government installations. The military affirmed a massive operation to strike strategic targets.

The state TV in Iran broadcasted the attacks on Mehrabad Airport, where parked aircraft were directly hit. A huge blast rocked western Tehran, sending shock waves to the city. Revolutionary Guards retaliated with fire. They fired missiles on a US oil tanker in the North Persian Gulf. Iran has since declared the Strait of Hormuz a no-fly zone for US, Israeli, and European vessels.

This obstructs very important sea routes and cuts energy supply. According to the reports of the Gulf media, the US and Israel conspired to conduct heavy bombing in the surroundings of the renowned Azadi Tower of Tehran. A number of buildings toppled down through clouds of smoke that were seen miles off. The number of casualties is not known, and the details are obscured as to whether homes or offices collapsed. Saudi Arabia was prompt as well.

Its Defense Ministry shot down six drones that were directly targeting the important Shaybah oil field. They were intercepted on the way to the air, and valuable energy stores were prevented by sabotage by the troops. Global crude oil prices rocketed to two-year highs amid the chaos. The ongoing Middle East war and failed US efforts to reopen Hormuz drove a sharp 9 percent jump. British crude topped $93 per barrel, while American crude traded at $88 per barrel. Markets tremble as supply fears mount.
