Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.
President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.
The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.
With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
