Donald Trump calls on the UK and other nations to join the US in sending ships to help secure the Strait of Hormuz - here's why the oil shipping lane matters
In a post on Truth Social, the US president says despite "Iran's attempted closure" of the passage, "one way or the other, we will soon get the Hormuz Strait OPEN, SAFE, and FREE!"
The UK Maritime Trade Operations says 16 ships operating in and around the Arabian Gulf, Strait of Hormuz and Gulf of Oman have been attacked since the war started
On Thursday, Iran's new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei vowed to keep blocking the strait in his first public statement
Meanwhile, strikes are continuing across the Middle East, with sirens sounding in Jerusalem after the Israeli military said it had detected new attacks from Iran
An Iranian government spokesperson says more than 200 students and teachers have been killed in the last two weeks, and 120 schools have been "severely damaged"

This has been after the Clown chewed Keir Starmer up for not joining up immediately in the US-Shailok strikes on Iran, saying he didn't need the RN aircraft carrier anymore - Clown is nothing more than a shameless hussy, now panicking because of Iran's "closure" of the Hormuz Straits, and frantically calling on his already-disgusted "allies" to help.
