The U.S.-Iran War: A Timeline of Escalation From Airstrikes to an Energy and Shipping Crisis
What began as a joint U.S.-Israeli strike campaign against Iran has widened into a conflict over missile power, Gulf energy infrastructure, maritime chokepoints and the political limits of U.S. war control.
"Nearly three weeks after the war began on Feb. 28, the conflict is no longer defined only by strikes on military targets. Iranian retaliation against Gulf energy assets, disruption around the Strait of Hormuz and visible differences between Washington and Jerusalem over the war’s end state have turned it into a broader test of military power, economic resilience and regional order."
