Tehran claims the US attacked it from the UAE as Iran war enters its third week

Iran War Enters Third Week

The ongoing war between Iran and the United States has entered its third week, marked by unexpected developments. The latest move by Iran involves urging people to evacuate three busy ports in Dubai and openly threatening neighboring countries' non-U.S. assets for the first time.

Iran's foreign minister claimed that the U.S. attacked Kharg Island and Abu Musa Island from two locations in UAE, calling it dangerous and stating Iran would try to be careful not to attack any populated area there. The U.S. Central Command said it had no response to Iran's claim, but a diplomatic adviser to the UAE president said on social media that the country has the right to defend itself but still prioritizes reason and logic.

The Strait of Hormuz was closed only to those attacking them and their allies, which is a rash move that could have serious consequences for the global economy. The strait is where one-fifth of global oil supplies transit, so any disruption there could lead to an increase in oil prices and supply issues.

On Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump said the country obliterated military sites on Kharg Island and that oil infrastructure could be next if Tehran continues to interfere with ships' passage through the Strait of Hormuz. This is a rash move that could have serious consequences for global security.
