Hormuz at risk as Iran–US–Israel war widens

TL;DR Summary
Two weeks into the Iran–US–Israel war, Israel says it killed two senior Iranian officials as it conducts hundreds of airstrikes on Iran; President Trump urges global partners to help secure the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran says is closed only to US and Israeli ships. The conflict has broadened with drone attacks including the US Embassy in Baghdad, a rising regional death toll (CNN estimates exceed 3,000), and threats to energy infrastructure. UN and world leaders call for de-escalation while oil markets react and Gulf vessels face increasing attacks and insurance risks.
