The US early yesterday intensified its strikes on Iran, hitting targets further north as US forces also fired into a ship the US accused of trying to break its naval blockade on the Islamic republic. Iran retaliated with missile and drone fire targeting U.S. allies in the region before dawn and warned its attacks may escalate. Days of back-and-forth strikes by the US and Iran across the Middle East — and renewed threats to the Strait of Hormuz — have shredded the interim deal to end the Iran war and could tip the region back into all-out war.
