Airstrikes continue as Israel warns of 'several more weeks' of fighting. Loud explosions have been heard in Iran. With less than 18 hours away from the US President Donald Trump's deadline for Iran to re-open the Strait of Hormuz – Iran says they might close the Strait completely if its energy infrastructure is struck. And a report just released by the World Meteorological Organisation says that the past 11 years have been the hottest on record.
