Israel and US Strike Iran's South Pars Gas Field, Triggering Regional Energy Crisis

Israeli forces with US coordination struck the South Pars natural gas field in the Persian Gulf, hitting gas tanks and refinery infrastructure at the Iranian sector of the world's largest natural gas deposit shared with Qatar. Iran warned Gulf nations of further major responses, with naval officer Alireza Tangsiri stating oil facilities 'associated with America' would come under fire. The strike escalates the targeting of energy infrastructure on both sides of the conflict.
