The Horror Underground
Whether it was Hamas attack on innocent Israeli people at a party in 2023 or the subsequent bloody reprisal by IDF against Palestinians in Gaza, humanity suffered terrible shocks and descended to depths of hell.
From a US strike claim in Qom to fresh warnings over Hormuz and a sharp crude rally, the Iran conflict is now hitting diplomacy, energy markets and regional security together.
The US-Israel-Iran conflict entered its fourth week on Monday with the war widening far beyond direct strikes. Fresh battlefield claims, warnings over the Strait of Hormuz, rising oil prices, and diplomatic outreach from Europe and the Gulf all point to a crisis that is now hitting energy markets, regional security, and global nerves at the same time.
The latest flashpoint came after the US said it had destroyed a turbine engine production plant in Iran’s Qom, describing it as a facility linked to attack drones and aircraft components used by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Even as Washington projected strength, pressure also mounted for restraint, with France, Spain, and other countries calling for navigation through Hormuz to be restored and for attacks on energy infrastructure to stop.
