Описание

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First up—during Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, the United States reportedly relied on a secretive maritime network to keep Gulf oil flowing. We'll examine the remarkable Reuters investigation that claims Washington borrowed tactics from Tehran's own sanctions-evasion playbook—and how the operation may have helped avert a global energy crisis. Later in the show—tragedy strikes at a California air base as a B-52 bomber crashes shortly after takeoff, killing all eight crew members on board. We'll bring you the latest details on the crash and what investigators are focusing on as they search for the cause.
