U.S. forces have targeted three Iranian oil tankers after Iran performed an attack on American Navy ships. This exchange represents a sharp jump in a conflict that has lasted for six and a half months.
Iran has grown more confident despite consistent U.S. military pressure over that time. Neither side has shown any indication of retreat.
“Neither side has shown any indication of retreat,” — Elena Iversen, regional editor at Ellstone Gate Recruitment, explained.
