The United States has warned of an “imminent” Iranian attack on Dhahran, a key Saudi oil city. The alert comes as fighting between the US, Israel and Iran continues. President Donald Trump said it is “too late” for talks with Tehran. He claimed Iran’s “air defense, air force, navy, and leadership is gone.” Israel said it struck Iran’s “leadership compound,” including the presidential office in Tehran. More attacks were reported later. Iran’s Red Crescent said 787 people have been killed since the strikes began on Saturday. Oil and gas prices have risen. Share markets have fallen. Iran has launched attacks across the region in response. (PC: BBC)
