A U.S. strike hit a wheat storage silo in Hoveyzeh, Iran, and another silo site in Dasht Azadegan County, according to Iranian state broadcaster IRIB. These actions are part of ongoing retaliatory strikes between the U.S. and Iran. US Central Command stated that the latest strikes were intended to degrade Iranian capabilities used to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. President Donald Trump indicated that U.S. strikes would escalate to target Iran's power plants and bridges if Tehran does not agree to a deal. Iran has responded by targeting U.S. allies, including Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan. Iran's deputy foreign minister stated that the U.S. decision to renew the blockade has dismantled the Islamabad memorandum, pushing the region back toward all-out war. Renewed U.S. attacks have resulted in at least 28 deaths in Iran, according to Iranian media and official announcements. Crypto markets showed minimal reaction, with Bitcoin trading around $63,800.
