Context

Washington launched its eighth consecutive wave of strikes in Iran overnight Saturday with US Central Command saying the latest attacks had targeted Iran's Revolutionary Guard in retaliation for Tehran's killing of two US troops at an airbase in Jordan. France 24 correspondent Fraser Jackson reports from Washington.

What it means

This is the eighth consecutive wave of US strikes in an ongoing conflict that delfee has tracked for 22 days with 27 prior signals. The key market channels — Brent crude and gold — were already called in earlier chains. An eighth strike in an established exchange adds no new actor, no new chokepoint threat, and no material escalation beyond what is already reflected in prices. Reissuing the same call would generate a false, repetitive signal.
