Trump Eyes Major Iran Strike | Fargo News

Tensions in the Middle East are escalating as President Trump edges closer to authorizing a massive military strike on Iran, following 13 consecutive nights of U.S. airstrikes targeting Iranian interference in key shipping lanes. Oil prices surged past $100 a barrel as Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz triggered global market panic — now cooling slightly but still under pressure. The UN warns the region is teetering on the brink of catastrophe, with Houthi rebels in Yemen, Iran’s allies, launching attacks on Saudi vessels. Meanwhile, drones were shot down near Erbil, Iraq — Iran hasn’t claimed responsibility but has targeted Kurdish opposition before. Iraq’s new Prime Minister recently visited Tehran, pledging to halt cross-border attacks. In response, the UK is evacuating diplomats from Iran, and major airlines like Qatar Airways are suspending flights to the region until July’s end.
