@brokenews.co: Saturday, August 8, 2026 US strikes tanker as Iran, Oman near a Hormuz deal The US struck an oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz after reimposing a naval blockade on Iranian ports, even as Iran and Oman near a deal to manage passage through the strait. Houthi rebels in Yemen have separately declared their own blockade on Red Sea shipping used by Saudi Arabia, and the Pentagon says nearly 100 US troops have been injured in two weeks of escalating strikes. Iran has indicated any deal would not fully reopen the strait. Coverage differs on what matters most: some outlets emphasize the economic and legal stakes of the standoff, others the human costs and Trump's shifting rhetoric, others Iran's risk to its own economy, and others US military effectiveness against Iran and the Houthis.
