YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this episode of The President's Daily Brief:
- First up — the fight for the Strait of Hormuz continues. The White House is working to assemble what officials are calling a “Hormuz Coalition,” a multinational naval force aimed at reopening the critical oil chokepoint after Iran disrupted global shipping through the strait. But with many nations hesitant to commit warships, the big question remains: who is actually willing to join?
- Later in the show — Israel launches ground operations in southern Lebanon. The Israeli military says its forces have begun targeted operations near the strategic border town of Khiam as clashes with Hezbollah intensify along Israel’s northern frontier.
