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.

The same happened to the Hunedoara's steel complex in Romania. Demolished and scrapped, only a few got filthy rich from commerce with scrap.

The Redcar Site was built in the mid 70's so where does the 175 years of contamination come from?
Why didn't everyone fight for Teesside Steel as they seem to fight so hard to save Scunthorpe and so recently the Port Talbot Steel Works.
Politically Teesside has always been the 'Fall Guy' when Plant or Work Closures are involved.
Now apart from the new British Steel (Greybull) company i.e. the Beam Mill – it really is a ghost town/works !

I never worked in any major heavy industry like steelmaking or oil refining but i have worked in an office and fixing cars and finally ended with schoolkids volunteering. The prospects in Yorkshire and the NE are so bleak. The only option left for these steelworkers is to mantain cricket clubs, rugby pitches and golfcourses nothing else.

This country doesnt have victories anymore. If Donald Trump thinks America is in a terrible state look at the state of the UK. This country has the most deindustrialised and unskilled econony anywhere in Europe inc Non EU states and EU states. The country makes so little nowadays and when they say theres work its work below the bottom of the barrell like working in a shopping mall or a packing warehouse. Distribution is a service not an industry.
