Tensions in the Middle East are reaching a dangerous new peak. The United States has warned that the most intense strikes on Iran may still be ahead, even as Tehran continues launching retaliatory attacks across Israel and the Persian Gulf. US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth signalled a major escalation, warning that American forces are prepared for a significant wave of operations against Iran if hostilities continue to expand. Meanwhile, the Pentagon says US forces have destroyed 16 Iranian mine-laying vessels believed to be involved in operations around the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil chokepoint. Washington fears Tehran may attempt to disrupt shipping lanes or block energy exports passing through the narrow waterway.
