Iran and US tensions rise third day
The region has experienced a military escalation between Iran and the United States for the third consecutive day, as Iran carried out attacks on U.S. military bases in the Gulf in response to previous strikes carried out by Washington against Iranian targets, including sites belonging to the Revolutionary Guard, naval facilities, and radar installations. The Iranian attacks resulted in the deaths of at least 11 people, including civilians, and the destruction of facilities near Erbil and Kouhestak. Additionally, several missiles were intercepted by the Jordanian army, and drone and missile attacks were thwarted in Kuwait and Bahrain. These developments caused sharp increases in the prices of oil and gas, with the West Texas Intermediate crude surpassing $90 a barrel for the first time since late July. Iran has continued to threaten broader retaliations if U.S. attacks persist, while Washington has promised a more violent response if its interests are targeted again.
