Iran strikes Gulf allies after US raid kills wedding guests; war fears rise

Iran launched attacks on U.S. allies in the Gulf following American airstrikes that reportedly killed four people at a wedding in Iran.

The conflict is largely centered around the Strait of Hormuz and its effect on oil markets. AI
