Is the Israel-Gaza war spreading across the Middle East? | BBC News
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.

Pouring Fuel on the Ukraine war but stopping the elimination of terrorists by Israel?!
Khamenei, dictator of Iran requested a ceasefire to keep his pro radical groups like 'Jihadi Islamic' and Hamas (that their leaders are living in Qatar luxury hotels) in power, while they refused to release hostages!
-He also ordered Yemen's Houthis to strike commercial ships with ballistic missiles and drones!
Jan 17- World Economic Forum (WEF) invited the master of terrorists to Davos amid simmering tensions with the West!
-Iran's regime FM Abdollahian interviewed with their favorite host, Fareed Zakaria from CNN: "If the Gaza conflict ends, we will stop other crises and attacks in the region!?"
– Iran's regime leader, Khamenei: "It was necessary to use the latest political opportunities to stop the war, and if the situation goes out of control, no party (he means terrorists) will be safe from its consequences!!" Ayatollahs of Iran's regime are scared!

Ever Wondered if Evil Exists ? Ever wondered what You would have Done when the Evil German Empire unleashed the Horrors of the Holocaust in World War 2 ? Would you have Followed the Crowd, bent the knee, relinquished your Right to be Free as the deadly darkness spread & the Crimes escalated & Escalated & ESCALATED ? Would you have Enabled the Evil ? Or would you have Resisted the Dark Side by standing up & saying – Not in My Name ?
No need to Wonder ! The Genocidal Mass Slaughter unfolding in the Gaza Ghetto – before the Eyes of the World – is Israel's '' Final Solution '' to the Palestinian Question. 25,000 Murdered so far & counting. Many of them Children ! Can You hear the Death Bell Tolling – Innocent Blood is dripping from Murderous Hands. How Far will they go ? How far will We Let them go – is The Answer.! Now is your chance: Will You stand up and say – Not in My Name ?

That is our "journalism"…. Israel – Gaza war? Israel is at war against that group you BBC refuses to call terrorist. Now are trying to hide their existence? What is all this love for Hamas?
Not to mention this is a very shallow take on the situation. That's Iran trying to be the main power on the region. Israel is an enemy, but the rival to Iranian hegemony is Saudi Arabia. Oct 7 was close to the Saudis entering the Abraham Accords. Damn, you even get money from the taxpayers to make such a hogwash work?

No mention of US strikes in Iraq and Syria before any Houthi or Iranian attacks…
Also US saying they will protect shipping in the Red Sea but have done nothing directly to stop Russia in the Black Sea when Ukrainian grain feeds half the world.
Always Iran this, Hamas that. Nobody is talking about how US and Israel are equally and sometimes initially escalating the conflict for their own personal interests.
US and Israel are up there with the worst of the world (Russia, Iran, China, North Korea). UK and EU are yesmen to these horrible countries too.

Almost all supporters of Israel's cruelty against the Palestinian people are human victims of the lies of the rotten propaganda of Israel and the USA. Western media as a source of news that is trusted by the people of Western Europe is just a lying media, which always presentsnews that does not correspond to the reality on the ground, western media is just media whose existence is a tool to slander the victims of the USA and its allies. Thank God for the existence of Al Jazeera, Al Araby and Middle Eastern media, as well as South mediaAfrica, all the lies of the USA, Israel and its allies were exposed so that many western publics turned to support Palestinian independence

Hezbollah said no one’s protecting the gazans so they will. Stop bombing gaza. That seems simple. Peace talks. Iran is saying the same. Instead we Americans have sent war ships drones bombs and the marines. We also veto peace talk and cease fire. We are clearly as deaf and dangerous as we are stupid.
