Tensions in the Middle East surge as Iran launches its 98th wave of strikes under Operation True Promise 4, targeting key U.S. and Israeli military and industrial sites across the region. The IRGC claims coordinated missile and naval attacks on Tel Aviv, Haifa, Beersheba, and critical maritime routes, including an Israel-linked vessel and a U.S. naval asset. The escalation comes just hours after President Donald Trump issued a stark ultimatum to Tehran, warning of sweeping attacks if Iran fails to comply with U.S. demands on nuclear policy and the Strait of Hormuz. With both sides hardening positions, fears of a wider regional war intensify, raising concerns over global security, shipping routes, and energy markets.
