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.

''No charges over Palestinian children killed in Gaza beach bombing
The Israeli army has dropped criminal proceedings over four Palestinian children killed by an airstrike on a Gaza beach last July. The incident sparked international criticism after journalists witnessed the event.''Because only Israel investigates its crimes.. HAHA

Question
How can modern day State of Israel, take from themselves.
Israel, the bases for the reestablished agreement of 1948, is predicated upon AD 70, when the upper and lower part of Jewish kingdoms were raided and taken over by a brutal Roman Empire.
Cause effect, modern day State of Israel, does not forfeit it's claim, due to years of illegal occupation by others, the Jewish kingdom's outdates any past or present occupation or claim by any other people.

It really is getting harder for the BBC to mask its antismitism, to equate a terrorist organization with Israel only serves to legitimize terror. No democratic soverign nation should be demonized for defending its citizens from a vile repressive regime who care not one jot for the safety of its citizens, and as has been proven { by proper reporters } deliberatly puts its civilian population in harms way. Shame on the BBC.

Honestly, both are at fault. I would love to see the Likud party out of office, both because of the absolute idiot that is Netanyahu, as well as because of the influence that the extreme-right has in the governing coalition. However, I would also love to see the Hamas out of Gaza, because they are an obstacle to any peace efforts, in addition to Israel.

I have a good idea. We let the Palestinian Muslims go to other Muslim countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman and the Jews go to the US. After that, all the Nuclear powered countries completely destroy Israel and Palestine. Problem Solved.

How many civilians did Israeli airstrikes kill during the war?
"The Palestinian death toll in Gaza stands at more than 1,800, with nearly 10,000 wounded, Gaza's Health Ministry said Sunday. More than 300 children have died" I quote from BBC itself although it did not mention how many Palestinian children were killed here. How many Israelis did Hamas kill during the war?
"On the Israeli side, 64 Israeli soldiers and three civilians have died" I quote.
Of course Israeli soldiers are supposed to prepare for death like other soldiers.
And then Israel rejects the findings as bias. Jews believe they are more precious than others whether in Middle East or even in US. Even BBC can not pass a day without mentioning Holocaust or the great heroism of Jews. Look at yourselves first before criticizing others.

One can`t expect anything better from the UN, which is owned by the US. How can a few fireworks compare to the devastating missile attack on civililians by the Israeli forces?

Palestinians don't have any missiles. A missile has a guidance system. What they do have is home-made rockets.
