The Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, Ali Larijani, has issued a sharp rebuke to US President Donald Trump, warning the American leader to "be careful" after he threatened a massive military strike that would cause total national destruction.

Donald Trump’s threats to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and launch more attacks on Iran aim to control the soaring oil prices after the weekend closure in the US, a knowledgeable military source told Press TV.

-The US-Israeli war on Iran disrupts global trade, energy prices, and supply chains.

​​​​​​​Iran welcomes the escorting of oil tankers by US forces through the Strait of Hormuz and waits for it, a spokesperson for the IRGC said on Thursday.

US military aggression against Iran is already carrying a multibillion-dollar price tag, with early estimates suggesting American taxpayers have absorbed more than $1 billion in costs in the early days of the war.

The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says a US-allied fuel tanker attacked by Iranian drones is still burning in the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran test-fired the Sayyad-3G naval missile, debuting vertical launch capability, 150-kilometer range, Mach 7 speed, and networked air defense integration to strengthen fleet protection in the Strait of Hormuz.
