AI Summary
Main Idea: President Donald Trump warned Iran the U.S. would hit its power plants unless it reopened the Strait of Hormuz, as the U.S. sent more troops to the Middle East and the war with Israel escalated.
Key Points:
- Iranian missiles struck two communities in southern Israel near its nuclear center, injuring dozens and causing major damage.
- Israel said the attacks marked a new phase in the war, while its forces kept striking Iranian targets, including the Natanz nuclear site.
- The U.S. is deploying three more amphibious assault ships and about 2,500 additional Marines to the region.
- The fighting is raising fears about oil supplies, shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, and wider conflict across the Middle East.
