DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Iran has fired more missiles at Israel and Gulf Arab states, demonstrating Tehran’s continued ability to attack. That comes even as U.S. President Donald Trump has claimed the threat from the country has been nearly eliminated. Iran’s strikes on its neighbors along with its chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz have disrupted the world’s energy supplies with effects far beyond the Middle East. Britain held a call Thursday with nearly three dozen countries about how to reopen the strait once the fighting is over. Iran responded defiantly to Trump’s speech to the American people a day earlier. A spokesman for Iran’s military insisted that Tehran maintains hidden stockpiles of arms, munitions and production facilities.
