There is war in the Middle East. The USA and Israel fight against Iran. The fight has results for the whole world. It is mostly about oil and gas. Much oil is moved by ships. One important place is the Strait of Hormus. This is a narrow water way at the sea. Iran threatens to close this way. Then ships could not pass through anymore. Oil would become rare in the world.
Donald Trump is the President of the USA. He now asks other countries for help. These countries should protect their own ships. Ships bring oil from countries like Saudi Arabia to Europe. Gas is also very important. If the ways are closed, prices go up. People must pay more money for gas. Heating also becomes more costly. The situation stays very dangerous.
Israel attacks targets in Iran. The USA supports Israel in this. Iran defends itself against the attacks. Experts worry a lot about the economy. A long war could weaken the world wide economy. Many countries hope for a quick solution. But there are no signs for peace yet.
