US-Iran ceasefire aims to reopen Hormuz as G7 kicks off, markets cautious

US and Iran announced a ceasefire ending hostilities and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, with a Geneva signing planned for Friday; Washington said it would lift its blockade of Iranian ports and Hormuz would reopen, while Iran said 60-day nuclear talks would begin after frozen funds are released—a claim the US disputes. Oil prices slid to multi-month lows on the news, though analysts warn this is a fragile reprieve, not a return to normal, given unresolved issues like Iran’s nuclear program, missiles, and proxies. Reactions were mixed: the EU, Pakistan, and Qatar welcomed the move, Israel and Lebanon tensions linger, and the signing coincides with the G7 summit in France, shaping a cautious path ahead for a lasting settlement.

Iran names Mojtaba Khamenei as new supreme leader amid regional crisis

Iran’s Assembly of Experts appointed Mojtaba Khamenei, 56, the son of the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as supreme leader following his father’s death in US-Israeli strikes. Seen as a move to ensure continuity and a hardline stance, the decision has backing from the IRGC and Iran’s security establishment. Reactions abroad were mixed: Oman and Iraq offered congratulations; the US’s Donald Trump criticized the choice; Israel condemned it as a continuation of the regime’s brutality; Russia pledged unwavering support, China cited sovereignty, and Yemen’s Houthis welcomed the appointment, all against the backdrop of the ongoing US-Israel war on Iran and Tehran’s broader crisis.

US-Israel Launch Major Strikes on Iran as Tensions Escalate

The United States and Israel have launched widespread strikes across Iran, including Tehran, described by President Trump as 'major combat operations' aimed at destroying Iran's missile capabilities and pressuring its nuclear program. The operation, named 'Epic Fury,' follows weeks of escalatory threats and ongoing negotiations over Iran's nuclear and ballistic programs. Iran has retaliated with missiles targeting Israel and US bases in the region, with explosions reported in multiple cities in Iran and across the region, prompting international calls for de-escalation.
