U.S. Strikes Iran Over Strait Attacks | Denver News

U.S. strikes against Iran escalate as retaliation for attacks on merchant ships in the Strait of Hormuz, with President Trump warning of more decisive action—including potential strikes on oil infrastructure and Kharg Island. The moves come amid fears of a wider war, spiking oil prices and threatening global energy flows. The U.S. also revoked Iran’s license to sell oil in dollars, rejecting Tehran’s push to control shipping routes. Iran’s leadership is split: some want to assert dominance over the strait, others seek peace talks—delayed until after the Supreme Leader’s funeral, a moment once hoped to ease tensions.
