US-Iran Conflict Escalates Across Middle East | Nigeria News

Tensions between the U.S. and Iran have exploded into the largest military exchange since a fragile ceasefire agreement, with both sides launching devastating strikes across the Middle East. Iran accuses U.S. forces of targeting civilian sites, including airports and bridges, while the U.S. remains silent on those claims. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards hit U.S. radar sites in Oman and a Syrian base, escalating retaliation after warning of consequences for attacks on its infrastructure. Casualties mount: Iran reports dozens dead and hundreds wounded, while Jordan intercepts missiles and Iraq’s coalition downed drones. In Iraq’s Kurdistan, an Iranian Kurdish group says eight of its fighters were killed. The Strait of Hormuz — vital for global oil — is now a flashpoint, with both nations trading fire for days. China and Pakistan urge de-escalation, but U.S. allies like Qatar and Kuwait are responding to Iranian attacks. The U.S. has also reimposed port blockades, as Iran vows to defend the strait and retaliate for strikes on civilians.
