Iran live updates: White House calls on other nations to secure Strait of Hormuz

Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Sunday that the war with Iran will come to an end in the next few weeks, and possibly sooner, amid concerns about high gas prices.

"I think that this conflict will certainly come to an end in the next few weeks," Wright told ABC News "This Week" co-anchor Martha Raddatz. "Could be sooner than that, but the conflict will come to the end in the next few weeks."

Wright's comments come as Americans are seeing increasingly high gas prices as a result of the war. One major piece of leverage Iran maintains is its control over the Strait of Hormuz, a critical maritime passageway connecting the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman through which around 20% of the world's oil supply passes.

Iran has effectively closed the strait, sending crude oil prices skyrocketing and leading to higher gas prices in the U.S.

Rescue and recovery operations were underway on Sunday at "several incident sites" in central Israel after reports of an Iranian aerial attack, the Israel Defense Forces said on social media.

The Iranian military launched another wave of missile and drone strikes overnight, officials said statement on Sunday morning.

At least 10 hypersonic missiles were launched, along with an unspecified number of drones, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said in a statement.

The IRGC said the targets included U.S. forces at Al-Dhafra Air Base, in the United Arab Emirates, for playing "an intelligence-support role in the invasion of the Islamic Republic of Iran," along with being a regional command location.
