The conflict between the United States and Iran has entered a new dangerous phase. On the night of 9 to 10 June 2026, US forces carried out precise strikes on Iranian military installations in strategic locations on the Strait of Ormuz.
US attacks

Response from Iran
Iran He reacted quickly. According to statements by the Iranian Armed Forces, Tehran conducted attack drones and ballistic missiles on American bases in the region, including Jordan, Bahrain and Kuwait. Iranian media They say they hit 21 objectives. So far, there's no evidence of casualties among American personnel.
Trump's harsh words
President Donald Trump He reacted very strongly. In a published statement, he warned:
‘If Iran He won't want a sensible deal, we'll attack them very hard. We are not going to tolerate further attacks on our forces and interests."
Negotiations on the edge
Despite escalation, negotiations between the parties continue – through Qatar. But so far both sides are far from compromise. Iran demands the abolition of sanctions and security guarantees, while the US expects a significant reduction in Iran's missile and nuclear programme.
Experts are concerned that further escalation may lead to the closure of the Strait of Ormuz, which would trigger a global energy crisis and a sharp rise in oil prices.
The situation remains very tense and dynamic.
