  3. Iran: The Latest Podcast
  4. Trump threatens to ‘annihilate’ Iran as China upgrades Djibouti military base
Donald Trump has once again threatened to "annihilate" the
Iranian regime, saying he faces a major decision on how to
proceed with the Iran war but will consult with his Gulf allies
at the UN General Assembly next week first. 

On today’s episode of Iran: the Latest, Roland Oliphant speaks to
former Royal Navy commander Tom Sharpe about whether Trump will
execute his strike threat given Washington appears to lack the
risk appetite for further military escalation. They unpack how
the US and Saudi Arabia are smuggling millions of barrels of oil
out of the Strait of Hormuz to keep prices down, and what it says
about the crippled Iranian military’s inability to police the
narrow waterway. 

Plus, satellite imagery reveals China is upgrading its military
base in Djibouti near the Bab al-Mandeb strait, Yemen’s Houthis
claim their first fatality in this round of strikes on Saudi
Arabia, and what a looming US naval drawdown in the Gulf means
for Western security.
