US and Iran exchange a new wave of strikes as uncertainty over peace deal grows

Описание

The US military said it struck Iranian military sites over the weekend, while Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed it retaliated by targeting an American base used to launch attacks on southern Iran. The latest exchange of strikes comes as Washington reportedly hardens its demands on Tehran in negotiations aimed at ending the war. Meanwhile, Kuwait’s military said on Monday that its air defense systems intercepted drones and missiles, blaming Iran for the escalation. As the US president claims he is in ‘no hurry’ to end the hostilities, how long can the confrontation continue? And as the economic fallout from the war continues to ripple through global markets, could growing pressure for stability push Washington to reconsider its approach to achieving peace?
