Iran threatens to turn the Middle East into "hell" for the United States

Iran's Revolutionary Guard has threatened this Thursday to turn the Middle East into a "hell" for the United States in response to the United States, and both countries have attacked each other again for the second consecutive day.

Last night, the U.S. Army attacked several Iranian military targets in response to Iran's attacks, according to the U.S. Central Command (Centcom). 

Iran's Revolutionary Guard, for its part, has launched drones and missiles into several Middle Eastern countries with US military bases, including Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan.

In the midst of these attacks, the Iranian Navy has announced the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz and warned that it will respond with gunfire to any ship passing through it . The United States denies this closure and claims that commercial ships are crossing Ormuz.

Although Washington and Tehran are negotiating a peace deal, this week there were attacks between the two countries after Iran shot down a US helicopter.
