This, they assert, will have global economic and energy market implications, potentially affecting American voters as well. The warnings come amid ongoing tensions between Iran and the US, with Iran threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz if the US maintains its naval blockade.

    President Trump has ordered a new round of strikes against Iran, with operations potentially beginning as early as this weekend and lasting several days.

Trump has repeatedly threatened to target Iranian power plants and bridges, and has said that he is weighing a 'massive' attack on Iran. The US resumed strikes on Iran this week after nearly two weeks of nightly attacks earlier this month.

    Spain Installs Buoy Barrier Off Ceuta for Immediate Migrant Deportation

    Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has ordered the installation of a barrier of buoys off Ceuta to create a legal basis for immediate deportation of migrants intercepted while swimming. The decision comes in response to a massive influx of migrants from Morocco, exceeding 50,000 in recent days. The barrier, 500 meters long, will be supplemented by anchored buoys and patrolled by Civil Guard boats. The Supreme Court ruling of July 8 requires a physical element of restraint at sea for 'hot returns' of migrants. The Spanish army is assisting in the installation of the barrier, with overall coordination by the Maritime Rescue Service.
