Beirut:
Iran asserted control over the Strait of Hormuz on Friday, saying it had warned three ships not to pass through the waterway, a day after President Donald Trump said he would extend a U.S.
deadline for Iran to open the strait.
As Iran moved to formalize tolls for vessels passing through the strait, the war continued unabated on Friday, with new attacks reported in Iran, Israel, Lebanon and Kuwait. Iranian state media said that airstrikes in the country had hit a uranium processing plant, a nuclear research center, two steel plants and another industrial complex.
