US-Israel-Iran War: ‘Target our infra and we’ll hit harder,’ threatens Iran; Israel warns of bigger strikes

The United States on Friday (local time) signalled it will press ahead with military operations against Iran, with President Donald Trump rejecting calls for a ceasefire even as tensions deepen across the Gulf. Washington also urged allies and major economies to take responsibility for securing the Strait of Hormuz, a key global oil route disrupted by the ongoing conflict.

Meanwhile, Iran warned of wider retaliation, cautioning countries against allowing their territories to be used for attacks and signalling it would exercise its right to self-defence.
