Dani Bensky, superviviente de Epstein: “Estados Unidos ha fallado estrepitosamente en este caso”

On September 1, 2026, the United States conducted a second strike against Iranian targets within a 48-hour period. President Donald Trump had previously promised additional attacks against Iran. The latest strikes targeted positions in Iran, escalating tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran retaliated by attacking American facilities in Jordan, though no US casualties have been reported.

Iranian state media claimed that the attack killed at least four people and injured 35 others at a wedding ceremony in Kuhestak. U.S. Central Command confirmed the strikes began around 6 PM Eastern Time, responding to recent IRGC attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and American service members in the region. The attacks targeted radar systems, maritime assets, mine placement capabilities, and air defense emplacements.

Iran reported that the strikes hit an airport in Jiroft and caused at least four deaths and over 50 injuries during a wedding celebration. President Trump warned of a more powerful attack if Iran responded, stating that Iran would be "completely exterminated as a country" if it retaliated.
