Iran-US-Israel War Highlights: US President Donald Trump has called for a collective international effort to ensure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important oil shipping routes. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said countries that depend on oil flowing through the strait should take responsibility for securing the passage, adding that the United States would assist and coordinate with them.
Meanwhile, Israel’s military has said two senior Iranian intelligence officials — Abdollah Jalali-Nasab and Amir Shariat — were killed, describing them as key figures in Iran’s intelligence structure linked to the Khatam al-Anbiya Emergency Command.
Iranian authorities have also claimed that more than 42,000 civilian units, including homes, commercial buildings and schools, have been affected. The government said hundreds of teachers and students were among those reported killed or injured.
At the same time, diplomatic efforts appear to be facing hurdles, with reports suggesting the Trump administration has rejected attempts by regional allies to initiate ceasefire negotiations.
