The Middle East conflict has entered a dangerous new phase as the United States launched a seventh consecutive night of airstrikes on Iranian military targets, prompting fresh retaliation from Tehran. Iran has reportedly struck targets in Kuwait and Jordan, while tensions surrounding the Strait of Hormuz continue to escalate. Military analyst Dr. Meir Javedanfar explains why Iran is seeking greater control over the Strait of Hormuz, why Gulf nations are backing the United States despite growing damage to regional infrastructure, and how the conflict could reshape global energy markets. With desalination plants, military bases, oil facilities, and shipping routes increasingly under threat, fears of a wider regional war continue to grow.
