The military stand-off between the US and Iran has escalated
again after Donald Trump ordered a seven-hour bombing campaign
targeting Iranian missile barracks, coastal radar sites, and
naval bases. The inevitable Iranian response targeting its Gulf
neighbours was met with rare daytime strikes by American
forces.

On today’s episode of Iran: the Latest, Roland Oliphant sits down
with Tim Mak and Jacqueline Cole from the Iran War Dispatches
Substack to discuss the significance of what each side is hitting
and how the Pentagon is adapting its tactics against asymmetric
Iranian warfare. They also discuss whether Trump’s brutal threat
to destroy Iran's power plants and bridges will bring Tehran to
the negotiating table.

Plus, worrying signs that Iran is becoming more militarised and
why Jackie and Tim went to Armenia to find out what ordinary
Iranians think of the war.
