Regional escalation threatens global energy and shipping.
Event Overview
The U.S. and Iran have engaged in a series of missile and drone attacks across the Gulf region, with Iran targeting facilities in Qatar, UAE, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain. In response, U.S. Central Command launched strikes against over 300 Iranian military targets, including air-defense systems, radar sites, and UAV facilities. Iran has declared the Strait of Hormuz closed, citing illegal U.S. military movements and interference in the waterway. This escalation follows the death of Iran's previous supreme leader and the ascension of Mojtaba Khamenei.
