US strikes Iran in Strait of Hormuz hours before Election Day

The U.S. striking Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz hours before Election Day. Iranian media reporting strikes on the islands of Qeshm and Hengam, home to an underground missile site and naval base in the Strait of Hormuz. This, as President Trump previously said, the U.S. wouldn't launch strikes on Iran before the midterms. And the move came as Iran said it has a two-day plan to reopen the Strait and resume peace talks, but now they are issuing a new warning. We are at the highest level of preparedness. If Washington makes another strategic miscalculation, it should know that this time it will face a new battlefield. And Trump also announcing this morning aid to Israel will be cut at the end of the year. The ongoing war remains on voters' minds this morning, and it has driven up gas prices and heavily impacted the economy here in the US, in the United States.
