Shafaq News- Washington

US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth on Tuesday warnedIran it would face a military response “ten times harder” if it continuedattacking commercial shipping and countries across the region.

    Speaking at the White House during President DonaldTrump’s meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun, Hegseth argued that Tehranhad exhausted opportunities to resolve tensions over the Strait of Hormuz, whichcarries about 20% of global oil supplies. Trump, he noted, retained “all theoptions necessary,” leaving Iran with a choice between renewed negotiations andthe “War Department.”

    US Central Command (CENTCOM) had reported a tenthconsecutive night of operations inside Iran, striking command centers, navalfacilities, missile and drone launch positions, and air defense systems toweaken Tehran’s ability to disrupt maritime traffic through the Strait.

    Iranian Air Force Deputy Commander Brig. Gen.Talebzadeh contended that an F-5 fighter jet attack on a US base in Kuwait hadinflicted “a humiliating defeat” on American forces, maintaining thatoperations across the region had shattered “the myth of American invincibility.”

    In Kuwait, the Ministry of Electricity, Water andRenewable Energy confirmed that several power generation units had been takenoffline after facilities supplying electricity and desalinated water came underfire for a fourth consecutive day.

    Jordan’s armed forces intercepted a fresh wave ofIranian drones overnight and into Tuesday morning without casualties ormaterial damage, while Bahrain’s Defense Force also destroyed several aerialthreats headed toward civilian areas, reporting no casualties or damage.
