US launches new wave of strikes

way2barak, July 14: US Central Command strikes third consecutive night against Iran at Donald Trump’s direction.

Several blasts being heard in Bushehr province, which is home to Iran’s only civilian nuclear plant.

“These strikes will continue imposing a heavy cost on Iranian forces and degrade their ability to attack innocent civilians and commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz,” US Central Command said in a post on X.

Oil prices have risen 2% to their highest in four weeks as the renewed US-Iran hostilities heighten uncertainty about energy ⁠flows through the strait of Hormuz.
