· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
The United States launched attacks on Iran early Tuesday, following President Donald Trump's announcement of a renewed blockade in the Strait of Hormuz. In retaliation, Iran targeted Bahrain and two oil tankers linked to the UAE, resulting in one sailor's death and eight injuries. The UAE government warned of potential reprisals against Iran. The conflict escalates as the U.S. and Iran vie for control over the vital waterway, which is crucial for global oil and gas trade. Brent crude prices surged to over $84 per barrel, the highest in a month. The U.S. military stated that the attacks would degrade Iran's capabilities to threaten commercial navigation.
