CAIRO (AP) The United States and Iran traded missile barrages Thursday, snapping an uneasy rhythm of restraint back into open hostilities and dimming any hope for a quick end to the five-month conflict. After a few days of relative pause—during which mediators tried to revive diplomatic momentum—the fighting resumed with missile and drone strikes reaching across borders. The U.S. military said it completed a heavy wave of strikes against Iran in response to an earlier Iranian missile attack on a U.S. base in Jordan. When missile barrages resume, markets react, allies worry, and every neighboring country begins contingency planning for the worst. The Houthis have also declared a blockade of Saudi shipping through the Red Sea trade route at Bab el-Mandeb, prompting Saudi oil to follow workarounds.
