The conflict between the U.S. and Iran is set to intensify as President Donald Trump announced from the White House that “Operation Epic Fury” will continue indefinitely. Prioritizing American national security, Trump issued a chilling ultimatum, warning that he is prepared to send Iran back to the “Stone Age” if they persist with their missile programs.

The President reaffirmed his stance that Iran is actively developing dangerous weaponry and declared that the U.S. will never allow them to become a nuclear-armed power. “America’s safety is paramount,” Trump emphasized, fueling fears of a prolonged regional war. Following his belligerent message, the global energy market reacted instantly. Crude oil prices surged by 4%, hitting a high of $105 per barrel. This sudden spike has sent shockwaves through international economies, as investors brace for the long-term impact of Trump’s uncompromising military and foreign policy.
