0:00On April 8th, the U.S. and Iran just inked a two-week ceasefire deal to the evening, but it's already getting stress-tested with new missile and drone strikes lighting up the Middle East by Wednesday morning. Iranian state media reported a hit on an oil refinery at Levant Island, while the United Arab Emirates fired back at an incoming Iranian missile wave, and Kuwait's forces knocked down a bunch of drones, aimed at oil sites, power plants, and water facilities. President Trump laid down a hard line, vowing strikes on civilian targets if Iran doesn't reopen the Strait of Hormuz, that vital choke point for global oil flow that's been snarled up and hammering the economy. Vice President J.D. Vance claims Iran signed off on clearing the strait with Tehan's foreign minister only promised safe passage for the two weeks, through coordination with their military, citing some technical hurdles. Tensions they sky-high as both sides watch this fragile pause with the world holding its breath on whether the ceasefire holds or blows up next.
