Iran’s IRGC escalates as Hormuz leverage and Lebanon deal run risk to the Iran-US MoU
Iran’s IRGC released video of missile strikes as a second day of US-led attacks continues and a US-backed framework allowing Israeli forces in southern Lebanon sparks renewed tension, jeopardizing the Iran-US MoU. Iran says it will command Hormuz traffic for 30 days, Hezbollah rejects the Lebanon accord, and analysts warn the MoU could fall apart amid regional brinkmanship and market volatility driven by the Strait’s disruption.
