The "Ramadan War" case/100; Reflections on the consequences of the war against Iran in the world's media 🔺PBS: The U.S. Army has begun new airstrikes against Iran with the aim of "swiftly punishing" the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps due to an attack on a base in Jordan that resulted in the deaths of two American soldiers. According to this report, CENTCOM claims that these strikes are designed to "further reduce Iran's ability to restrict tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz." 🔺The Hill: Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei has called Donald Trump's signature on the memorandum of understanding "completely worthless and lacking any credibility" and described the repeated American attacks as "another undeniable proof of the dishonesty, irrationality, unreliability, and evil nature of the United States." 🔺BBC: The scope of the attacks has also expanded to civilian infrastructure. The Iranian Ministry of Health announced that at least 50 people have been martyred and over 500 injured in U.S. attacks over the past three weeks. The death toll of American soldiers has also risen to 16. Meanwhile, the U.S. Embassy in Amman, citing a "specific and credible threat," claimed the evacuation of Aqaba airport, which was immediately denied by the Jordanian government. 🔺Al Jazeera: The U.S. accused Iran of responsibility for the attacks and responded by targeting coastal defense systems, missile storage sites, and Iranian drones. In response, Iran declared that according to Article Five of the memorandum, it has the right to manage the security of the Strait of Hormuz, but Washington interprets this article as meaning guaranteeing the freedom of navigation. The dispute over the interpretation of this clause has become one of the main factors of the crisis. Mediation by Oman, Qatar, and Pakistan has also failed to prevent the escalation of tensions. 🔺Al-Mayadeen: The U.S. is seeking to redesign the regional order in coordination with Turkey, Saudi Arabia, France, and Israel and to exert pressure on Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and Iran. The writer states that Donald Trump had asked Ahmad al-Shara to intervene militarily against Hezbollah in Lebanon, but he did not accept this request and only sent his foreign minister for consultations in Lebanon. 🔺Ray al-Youm: After failing to achieve its initial objectives in the war with Iran, the U.S. has changed its strategy and is seeking to leverage the crises in Iran and Ukraine to restrain China. The writer believes that Washington's focus on the Strait of Hormuz and attacks on Iran's transportation and energy infrastructure are aimed at limiting energy exports to China and controlling global trade routes. Simultaneously, the escalation of attacks on Russian energy facilities in Ukraine is also interpreted within this framework as pressure on China's two main energy suppliers.
