Trump Threatens Iran with 'Major Military Punishment' After Red Sea Tanker Attacks
US President Donald Trump has warned Iran of 'major military punishment' after Houthi fighters struck two Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea, disrupting global oil supplies and sending prices soaring.
The attacks have extended the Middle East war to a second major shipping chokepoint, with Brent crude rising more than 6% to break through $100 a barrel for the first time since May.
Trump said Iran's Houthi allies would be held responsible and that 'they haven't received enough pain yet', hinting at potential further military action against Iran.
