Iran has announced that it is waging a "large-scale war" with the United States. Iranian territory, including Bushehr where the country's only functioning nuclear power plant is located, has been subjected to US bombardment for the ninth consecutive night. While Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian expressed the gravity of the situation, 50 people have lost their lives and more than 500 have been injured on the Iranian side so far in the conflict that began on 28 February.
The conflict goes beyond Iran and the US and risks turning into a regional crisis. Iran-aligned Yemen Houthis declared a naval blockade on the country in retaliation for the blockade Saudi Arabia imposed on Yemen. This situation directly threatens the global energy supply; it is predicted that the global oil supply will decrease by 7 percent if the Bab el-Mandeb Strait is completely closed.
While the military escalation continues, diplomatic efforts are also ongoing. Mediators proposed a 10-day ceasefire between Iran and the US in order to revive the temporary agreement reached last month. However, attacks and incidents against commercial vessels near the Strait of Hormuz continue to occur; the United Nations has also warned that this regional tension risks turning into a larger conflict.
