US strikes Bushehr as Iran's parliament tables bill to control Hormuz

Euronews reports that the United States struck the Iranian port city of Bushehr on Tuesday, hitting four points in the city that hosts Iran's only nuclear power plant.

Euronews notes this is a developing situation, and the feed does not include further detail on casualties or the strikes' aftermath.
