00:01The United States completed its 11th consecutive night of attacks on Iran, while Tehran expanded
00:08its offensive against the Gulf states.
00:10Amid the growing escalation in the region, Pakistan intensified its diplomatic efforts
00:15to salvage the interim deal between the two.
00:18On Tuesday, Pakistani officials met with Iran's Interior Minister Eskandar Momemi.
00:24Meanwhile, Trump appeared to show little interest in engaging in talks with Tehran.
00:28They want to desperately meet, and until they're ready to meet in a meaningful way, we have
00:34no interest in even.
00:36And the cost of the war has risen.
00:38U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth told Senate on Tuesday that the Iran war has cost
00:43the United States 37.5 billion U.S. dollars so far.
00:48Do you have a new estimate about what the war has cost us so far in this, the fifth month
00:53of the first year of this war in Iran?
00:56Senator, the estimate we have as of today is 37.5 billion.
01:00The war between the U.S. and Iran has lately become a battle for control over the Strait
01:06of Hormuz.
01:06Traffic through the strait has remained largely halted, disrupting global supply chains and
01:11driving up oil prices worldwide.
01:13We have been driving up oil prices worldwide.
01:13Thank you very much.
