Iran-US clash on shipping escalates

Iran and the United States exchanged the largest attacks on shipping since the start of the war, with Iran targeting 10 ships near the Strait of Hormuz and the US sinking five Iranian oil tankers. These attacks caused oil prices to rise, with Brent crude surpassing $100 per barrel for the first time since July, and resulted in the death of one sailor aboard a tanker and injuries to another. Iran also announced the launch of ballistic missiles at a U.S. base in Jordan. In response, Washington destroyed five Iranian oil tankers and called for confronting any future maritime threats, amid escalating tensions in the Gulf region and the Middle East.
