Morning recap Good morning, Middle East Eye readers, If you're just joining us, here are key developments from across the region: * US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth says the military can attack Iran’s entire oil tanker fleet, after Washington announced strikes on three Iranian vessels following attacks on US warships. * Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy says it struck three oil tankers travelling through “unauthorised” routes in the Strait of Hormuz and three US-affiliated vessels “in other areas”. * Iran’s unified military command has warned that it could intensify and broaden attacks on US naval vessels if Washington maintains its maritime blockade and continues the “harassment of Iranian ships”.
