Description
US President Donald Trump has said that something will happen "fairly soon" in his country's conflict with Iran. It comes amid reports that the US and Israeli militaries have developed plans for a major new wave of strikes. Meanwhile, oil prices have risen to their highest for five months. Trump puts the blame on Iran, saying the country is doing all it can to drive prices up before the US midterm elections. Reports from Saudi Arabia say that the state oil company Aramco has evacuated its headquarters in the eastern city of Dhahran, as Houthi attacks on the country continue. And inside Yemen, the United Nations says more than two million children are malnourished.
