US-Iran tensions surge after soldier deaths

from Sunrise · host LiSTNR

Tensions escalate in the Middle East as the US launches its ninth consecutive night of missile attacks on Iran, while Tehran retaliates by striking American bases in Jordan and Kuwait. Three US soldiers have been confirmed dead, including 25-year-old Tyler Frihan from Hawaii and 19-year-old Isabella Gonzalez from Texas. President Donald Trump has warned Iran will pay severely for American casualties, while the US Secretary of State criticises Iran for attacking shipping vessels despite promises to keep the Straits of Hormuz open.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
