Iran war live: Tehran attacks Gulf states, Jordan; 2 Hormuz tankers on fire

This screen grab taken from video footage released on July 20, 2026 by Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC)'s Sepah News shows what they say a missile being launched from an undisclosed location towards US targets in the Gulf. Iran targeted US radar and air defence installations in the Gulf on July 21, warning Washington of "more decisive and powerful" attacks to come as the conflict threatened to widen with a blockade of Saudi ports by Houthi rebels in Yemen.
