The attacks are likely a\u00a0retaliation for recent US military operations against targets in southern Iran, where US Central Command said it struck Iranian command centers, missile and drone launch sites, air defense systems and maritime capabilities. <\/p>\n<p>There has been no immediate confirmation from US officials regarding damage or casualties at either facility. Over recent days, Iran has also reported attacks targeting US military positions in Kuwait, while Jordan has previously said it intercepted multiple Iranian drones approaching its territory.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>Despite the military escalation, diplomatic efforts to restore a ceasefire continue. Reuters reported that mediators have floated proposals aimed at reviving negotiations between Tehran and Washington, although the continued exchange of strikes highlights how fragile any path toward de-escalation remains.<\/p>\n<p>As long as the crisis persists, risk sentiment is likely to remain fragile, while oil prices should stay well supported.\ufeff\ufeff<\/p>\n<p>                            This article was written by Giuseppe Dellamotta at investinglive.com.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Iranian military targeted US assets stationed at Jordan&#8217;s Al Azraq base as well as facilities used by American personnel at Bahrain&#8217;s Sheikh Isa Air Base, according to Iranian state media.
