DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Iran has threatened recreational and tourist sites worldwide and insisted it is still building missiles. Its supreme leader issued another defiant statement on Friday. The United States was meanwhile deploying more warships and another 2,500 Marines three weeks into the war it launched alongside Israel. Iran fired on Israel and energy sites in neighboring Gulf Arab states. With little information coming out of Iran, it was not clear how much damage its forces have suffered in the punishing U.S. and Israeli strikes that began Feb. 28 — or even who was truly in charge of the country. But Iran’s attacks are still choking off oil supplies and denting the global economy.
