00:00Meantime, President Trump ordering a new set of strikes on Iranian military targets for a third consecutive night yesterday.
00:06So this, as another blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, is scheduled to begin this afternoon.
00:11Mike Tobin is live in Tel Aviv with the details. Good morning to you.
00:15All of a person, news reporter, is live from Tel Aviv.
00:19Let's listen to what is happening in the ground of the invasion.
00:23Good morning, Aisley. Good morning, gang.
00:25We're waiting now for that blockade to go into effect, which would happen a little less than eight hours from
00:30now.
00:30In the run-up, there's been a flurry of Iran firing on commercial shipping.
00:35Well, the Dutch shippers, Stolt Tankers, now confirms that one of their tankers flagged the Stolt Magnesium, flagged out of
00:41Liberia, was hit.
00:42That started a fire in the engine room.
00:44This is what we're talking about, this ship in the engine room.
00:47We are seeing these strikes on the commercial shipping.
00:50Oftentimes, they are hit in the engine room, which shows precision fire on the part of the Iranians.
00:54The U.S. launches third day of strikes on Iran and Iranian ships, you see.
01:07This is the video we have right now. All of these debris from the commercial shipping prompt at the U
01:12.S. to launch strikes.
01:13We've got video of a fire burning on Kish Island in the strait after the U.S. strikes.
01:17But the U.S. hit a number of targets up and down the coast of Iran, as the president says,
01:21the U.S. is going to take control of the strait.
01:23Yes, we hit Kish Island right now. You see all this in Iran.
01:27Sure, it's 20% reimbursement for security.
01:29Iranian coastal bases. We hit them.
01:31The blockade back. And it's a blockade not for anybody but Iran. In other words, it's anybody doing business with
01:36Iran can't go through.
01:37Everyone else will be able to go through. So, it's a blockade. It's a very strong blockade.
01:42The blockade was probably more effective even than hitting them. But I think the combination is the thing that really
01:48does.
01:49That's what Krom said. Hitting Iran with blockade is more effective than strikes. That's what we are doing.
01:55For the first time, the U.S. used sea drones to attack an enemy. Central Command says the drones hit
02:00Bandar Abbas.
02:01The targets were a ship repair facility and a submarine. U.S. Central Command says they have been hitting maritime
02:07targets,
02:09coastal facilities and hardware to launch missiles and drones. Angely, guys, back to you.
02:15That's what we are doing. We first time using a ship drone. He has a ship drone.
02:20Ship as a drone and it goes to the coastal bases. This is the coastal base. And boom. That's what
02:25we're doing.
02:26Okay. Thank you so much, Mike.
02:27Thanks, Mike.
02:29So, the president is making it clear that Iran needs to come to negotiate.
02:33Very clear.
02:34But it doesn't look like they're doing much negotiating.
02:36Boom.
02:36They continue to say that America's aggressors. I mean, we gave them that one day to honor their supreme leader.
02:42And then they were...
02:44Now, right now, oil prices jump as Trump goes to impose blockage worldwide.
02:49So, in U.S. as well, oil prices, gas prices are going up and up.
02:54And in the middle of the street, death to America, death to Israel.
02:57And we've already uncovered another plot for them to try to assassinate President Trump.
03:03So, the president is trying to get the world on board now.
03:06I understand.
03:07I don't want to be an elitist here.
03:09I understand that the gas prices affect people on a day-to-day basis.
03:13But do we want to really be dealing with this threat for the next 47 years?
03:17We finally got an opportunity to deal with it.
03:20This is what we have.
03:21Crude oil is going up so many times.
03:24Just handle it now.
03:25Yeah, that's exactly right.
03:26You can look at the crude oil prices now.
03:28They've been fluctuating between...
03:30They're like $79 to $80.
03:32$80.
03:34Crude oil, one barrel is now $0.80.
03:39After this new blockade and after the president announced a 20% toll,
03:43stocks did fall, crude oil prices increased.
03:45But they're still not as high as they were back in the spring.
03:49That's right.
03:49Now it's about...
03:50If you go to a gas station, on average in America, it's $385 today.
03:54But in the spring, it was $456.
03:56What is the price of gas in your area right now?
04:01Please comment on.
04:02We need to know about all this.
04:05That's right.
04:05And so what you're looking at is roughly a 9% to 10% increase in crude oil prices.
04:11That's what I told you.
04:12Boom.
04:12This is what we have as a SIP drone rocket.
04:15That's what we say.
04:16SIP drone rocket.
04:17But as Lou Basinese, our Fox business contributor, told you, I believe, Lawrence,
04:24earlier this morning, he said, this is all part of the president's negotiating tactics.
04:29Listen here.
04:29This is...
04:30The president knows what he's doing.
04:31We saw this with China.
04:32He's Louie Basinese, business contributor.
04:35Okay.
04:36And the tariff war, right?
04:37Let's raise it to 100%.
04:38No, let's make it 200%.
04:39And then it brings everyone to the table.
04:41So it's a negotiating sledgehammer.
04:42And for the everyday Americans, I think the important thing is we haven't seen oil spike back to over $100
04:47a barrel.
04:47I think there will be some premium that gets paid, a tax, a toll.
04:51It's not going to be the 20% that the president suggests, but he's...
04:54That's what he said.
04:55We have not seen oil spike to $100 per barrel right now.
05:00Never.
05:01He said it to Reuters that we have to get paid for safety and security in the strait,
05:05and we shouldn't just let the Iranians dictate that.
05:08Okay.
05:09All right.
05:10We'll continue to follow that story.
05:11Thank you, buddy.
05:12Bye-bye.
05:12Bye-bye.
