Agi: "Minacciavano le navi nello Stretto", gli Usa abbattono due droni iraniani su Hormuz

AGI - Scambio di colpi tra Iran e Usa e nuova escalation di tensioni in Medio Oriente. L'esercito degli Stati Uniti ha abbattuto, nella notte, due droni iraniani che minacciavano le navi mercantili in transito nello Stretto di Hormuz.
Nuova escalation tra Iran e Stati Uniti 
"Oggi le forze statunitensi in Medio Oriente hanno intercettato e distrutto due droni iraniani che rappresentavano una minaccia per il traffico marittimo internazionale nello Stretto di Hormuz", ha comunicato il Comando Centrale degli Stati Uniti (Centcom) con un post su X, aggiungendo che le truppe americane restano pronte a difendersi da ogni aggressione da parte di Teheran.
Usa e Iran, il nodo dei beni congelati 
Il segretario USA al Tesoro, Scott Bessent, intende mettere i beni iraniani congelati a disposizione degli Stati arabi del Golfo Persico per compensarli dei danni causati dagli attacchi di Teheran, passati e futuri. È quanto apprende Reuters da fonti ben informate.
Bessent, prosegue Reuters, avrebbe chiesto ai suoi funzionari di valutare l'entità dei danni già subiti in modo da calcolare l'ammontare del possibile risarcimento.
Il Tesoro, riferisce un'altra fonte al New York Post, utilizzerà "tutti gli strumenti disponibili per consentire che tutte le risorse iraniane siano messe a disposizione dei nostri alleati del Golfo per sostenere la ricostruzione e le riparazioni per eventuali danni futuri causati dall'Iran".
Ieri Mohsen Rezaei, un consigliere della Guida Suprema iraniana Mojtaba Khamenei, aveva dichiarato alla Cnn che lo sblocco di beni iraniani congelati per 24 miliardi di dollari era uno dei punti cruciali della trattativa con gli USA.

“Warships were threatening in the Strait,” the US shot down two Iranian drones over Hormuz.

US and Iran exchange fire and new escalation of tensions in the Middle East. The United States military shot down two Iranian drones in the night that threatened commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz.

New escalation between Iran and the United States
“Today, US forces in the Middle East intercepted and destroyed two Iranian drones that posed a threat to international maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz,” the US Central Command (Centcom) said in a post on X, adding that American troops remain prepared to defend themselves from any aggression by Tehran.

US and Iran, the issue of frozen assets
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent intends to make Iranian frozen assets available to Arab states in the Persian Gulf to compensate them for the damage caused by Tehran’s attacks, past and future. This is what Reuters learns from well-informed sources.

Bessent, Reuters continues, would have asked his officials to assess the extent of the damage already suffered in order to calculate the amount of possible compensation.

The Treasury, another source told the New York Post, will use “all available tools to ensure that all Iranian resources are made available to our allies in the Gulf to support reconstruction and repairs for any future damage caused by Iran.”

Yesterday, Mohsen Rezaei, an advisor to Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, told CNN that the release of $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets was one of the key points of the negotiation with the US.

The #Trump admin has failed over the last 16 months to nominate anyone to serve as assistant secretary for research, development & acquisition—who is supposed to oversee the #Navy’s weapons programs. And the Navy’s civilian work force, which plays a critical role in developing & testing new #warships, has been devastated by cuts & early retirements, #military ofcls said.

After Trump announced his plans for the new #battleships, #defense experts questioned whether they would EVER be built.
