Global Economic Impact of Rising Israel-Iran Tensions

Israel-Iran tensions have escalated, causing markets to plummet and fears of war to loom. US job growth has slowed, sparking concern among economists. Iran may strike Israel, with Blinken warning G7 allies and Hezbollah potentially joining the conflict. Hamas leaders have died in Tehran, with retaliation expected.
