U.S. missiles struck targets across Iran following President Trump's vow of military punishment for Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping. The conflict has caused oil prices to fluctuate and forced shipping companies to reroute vessels around Africa.
US missiles struck targets across Iran on Friday (local time) after President Donald Trump vowed "major military punishment" for Tehran and its Houthi allies in Yemen for extending the Middle East war to a second major shipping chokepoint, the mouth of the Red Sea.
