TOUS 4573 Moyen Orient l escalade s intensifie entre Washington et Teheran

The conflict between the United States and Iran has escalated. Tehran claimed responsibility for strikes against American military installations in Bahrain and Kuwait, in response to US airstrikes carried out for the fourth consecutive night. For his part, Donald Trump threatened to target Iranian power plants and bridges if no agreement was reached, while Washington reinstated its naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. This latest escalation raises fears of a regional conflagration with major consequences for security and energy markets.
