President Donald Trump says the United States will “hit Iran hard” after an attack on US bases in Jordan. The comments come as fighting in the Middle East resumes after a short pause in hostilities, which had raised hopes for a possible return to negotiations. Multiple outlets report that Trump links the renewed escalation to Iran’s role, including through its proxies operating in the region. Reuters-style details beyond Trump’s statements are not included in the provided summaries.
Separately, at least one source reports a market reaction to the renewed hostilities, saying oil prices rise sharply on concerns that renewed conflict could disrupt global fuel supplies. Overall, the accounts present Trump’s warning as a response to the Jordan attack and describe the broader context as a breakdown of a recent lull in fighting, with increased fears of further escalation involving Iran and allied groups.
