Tensions remain high, and so does the āfog of peaceā that was supposed to settle over West Asia when Washington and Tehran agreed to hold their fire. On paper, there is still a ceasefire. In reality, the past 24 hours have looked and sounded like the early hours of a new war. Sirens in Bahrain and Kuwait, interception booms, and US fighter jets racing toward Iranās Qeshm Island have once again turned the Strait of Hormuz into the worldās most dangerous bottleneck.
The United States says it launched āselfādefenceā strikes on an Iranian military ground control station on Qeshm after Iran fired ballistic missiles and drones toward American forces and bases in the Gulf. Tehran, in turn, claims it has answered by targeting USālinked sites in Kuwait and Bahrain and even the headquarters of the US Navyās powerful 5th Fleet. Between these accusations and denials, one fact is clear: Qeshm Island has become the center of the battlefield narrative.
So, in today's edition of From The News Desk with Yash Goyal, we will tell you everything that transpired in the gulf in last 24 hours and most importantly why Iran's Qeshm Island has become US military's primary target.
