US President Donald Trump confirmed on Monday that a strong strike would be launched against Iran.
Trump said in a press statement: The current US sanctions on Iran are beginning to bear fruit strongly.
He added: We intercepted all Iranian missiles except for one that did not pose a threat, and we will respond to the Iranian attack that targeted American forces in Jordan.
These statements come after the military escalation witnessed in the region during the past hours, following the American strike on the Iranian island of Larak and the military exchange that followed it, while the Strait of Hormuz remains a major focus of tension due to its importance to shipping and global energy supplies.
