The United States and Iran again attacked each other on Wednesday in the struggle for control of the Strait of Hormuz, further raising oil prices. The US military announced the end of a series of strikes on targets in Iran after the second night of attacks, while Tehran expanded retaliatory actions.
According to disclosed information, Iran struck American interests in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan. The attacks followed warnings that Tehran would respond to American strikes with strong retaliation. According to Iran's Red Crescent, one of the American strikes claimed victims at a wedding celebration, including a small child.
US President Donald Trump previously warned of further strikes and claimed that the American military has control over the Strait of Hormuz. However, several disclosed reports suggest that the struggle for this strategic sea route continues. The strait is crucial for world oil trade, and its destabilization immediately translates into energy prices. hnonline.sk ↗
The tension comes after a period of relative calm and revives concerns about a wider energy shock. Further developments will depend on the scope of Iranian retaliatory strikes, Washington's response, and whether maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz can be maintained. zpravy.aktualne.cz ↗
