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.

Too much emphasis on the bad weather instead of reporting on what has been accomplished by the Pope regardless of the very short visit in Tacloban. It was also quick for him to say that the people of Tacloban were very disappointed but he has not provided live interviews asking people how they truly felt about the Pope's visit. The people were in fact very understanding of the sad eventualities brought about by the terrible weather but more than anything else the Pope's presence was already enough for them. Everyone was just eager to meet him in person. For many, it was like meeting Christ on earth.

What manner of man is this? Even the winds and rain disobey him!
Seriously, if you want to rage up a storm as a pontiff, spend your time in Philippines learning to do "cornuto" hand gestures, doing them at crowds of people and to the waiting media, and summoning up the devil that way.

Dear Pope Francis, thank you very much for coming in the Philippines. No matter how tiring it is to travel different places just to reach many Filipinos as you can.. No matter how uncomfortable to get wet due to unpleasant weather just to be with us.. No matter how painful to waive your arms every now and then just to greet us all.. No matter how much backache it will cause you just to kiss every child that gets in your way.. No matter how risky your safety would be just to make us feel you care. . I can't say nothing more but THANK YOU. You are the instrument, a reminder of God's greatest love for humankind. And regarding the weather, ladies and gentlemen, you know nothing. But for us here, the moment Pope arrived in our land, everything feels right.. everyone feels good.. everything is amazing c^,

So the Pope's all powerful god couldn't protect him from a little typhoon. How sad for him. Or maybe this is his god's comment on the Pope's remarks about "Charlie Hebdo".
