Iran targets US bases in Jordan and the Gulf after Trump orders strikes near Hormuz

On Wednesday, the U.S. military struck "multiple targets in Iran," including air defense and surveillance radar sites, in response to what Central Command called "unwarranted and continued aggression."
These strikes follow a Monday clash between Iran and Israel and represent the third time this week that back-and-forth attacks have tested a two-month ceasefire.
Earlier Wednesday, American aircraft fired "precision munitions" into the engine room of the Palau-flagged Settebello attempting to breach the naval blockade with Iranian oil; three Indian sailors are missing.
President Donald Trump warned Tehran would "pay the price" for stalled negotiations, while Ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani told the Security Council that Iran "will never submit to pressure or question."
As Qatar attempts to mediate, Trump claimed the U.S. military conducted a "secret mission" to sneak oil past the Strait of Hormuz, while global crude oil prices remained above $93.
