USA - The US has issued a shock ban on flights over Iranian airspace amid concerns that the military strikes Trump cancelled last night could go ahead in the next 72 hours. However, the threat of all-out war is not over yet with reports that a US missile-launching cruiser has been put on 72-hour standby to attack Iran. A Pentagon official confirmed the Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Leyte Gulf has been mobilized for a possible strike. The 72-hour standby alert suggests that a military strike could still take place in the next few days.
