The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

I bet he was like: Oh, look the SWAT Team– a paramilitaty unit. And helicopters, and military helicopters. Congress: What's freedom? Lawenforcement: What's civil liberties? We learned a good amount from Edward.

1:50 have you done a deal ? 😂 You don't have to do a deal with Putin, he is more than reasonable man. If you speak to him with an open heart, he listens 👂 the conditions in Russia aren't all his imagine if I economically attack your country through subvert and covert means to keep military secrets around the world hidden to continue to abuse God's mind power, while God is aware of what is happening 👇
Don't you think God would think hmmm i see the problem, it isn't Putin, he wants freedom and happiness for everyone but he can't when he doesn't have the funds nor the capacity at a global level like the US or China do.
His hands are tied that's why he admires Snowden cause he changed the world but Putin is fighting his own execution from the US equally. The US is sick, i can't overstate this … They claim national this and that but it is a global problem we have and Snowden got to the root of it.
China is learning from the US how can we say well they got bad policy when they seen what America has done ? Understand?
If God wanted to collapse America all the presidents would be in hot water instantaneously it would be the end of the World….
Putin would be fine.
So who is the problem?
America.
I hope Snowden never returns home, for his own sanity, Putin is not the issue, it's the US.

He does not know how to keep secrets other wise he'd have no money.
He said "Everything used to be gone right it used to disappear like the morning dew" morning dew never disappears water is older than the sun, all information is trying to succeed no matter what it is doing & formal witness validation among large groups at attention is called: memory. Snowden is a criminal and a thief pornographer entertainer profiteer manipulator

"I know how to keep a secret" lol. This is funny. I mean, not to bash Snowden, he is a great guy, but it just sounds funny considering what he did (Which was morally right).
