The US has bombed military sites on an Iranian island, Kharg Island, which is vital to Iran's oil network. President Donald Trump warned that Iran's crude infrastructure could be next if Iran continues to interfere with ships' passage through the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, 2,500 more Marines and an assault ship are being sent to the Middle East, nearly two weeks into the war with Iran. This move indicates that the 2-week-old war is not nearing an end. Iran has launched widespread missile and drone attacks on Israel and Gulf states, effectively closing the strait of the Strait. The humanitarian crisis in Lebanon has also deepened, with nearly 800 people killed and 850,000 displaced as Israel launched waves of strikes against Iran-backed Hezbollah militants.
