Iran Threatens to Extend Conflict Beyond Region if US Israel Resume Attacks

Iran's Revolutionary Guard has warned that it will extend the Middle East conflict beyond the region if the United States and Israel resume attacks on Tehran. The paramilitary group released a strong statement on Wednesday cautioning that continued hostilities against Iran would lead to devastating strikes. According to the semi-official Mehr news agency the Revolutionary Guard said the war would be extended beyond the region and strikes would cause downfall in ways that cannot be foreseen. The Iran conflict has reached a precarious stalemate over the past few weeks. A ceasefire remains in place as both sides compete for control over the strategically important Strait of Hormuz. About 20 percent of the global oil and liquefied natural gas supply normally passes through this critical waterway. However shipping activities have nearly stopped since the war began on February 28. The Revolutionary […]

US–Iran crisis: Nigerian crude nears $120

Escalating tensions between the United States and Iran have driven Nigerian crude oil prices close to $120 per barrel, as global markets react to supply fears around the Strait of Hormuz. Data cited from the Central Bank of Nigeria show that Bonny Light, Nigeria’s flagship crude grade, recently traded around $117 per barrel, up sharply from earlier in the year. Analysts say the US–Iran war and Iran’s move to restrict traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for about 20 per cent of the world’s oil and gas shipments, have fuelled the price spike. Nigeria has benefited from higher export receipts, with some reports estimating an oil revenue windfall running into several trillions of naira compared to budget benchmarks. However, the surge in crude prices is a double‑edged sword for the country, which still imports most of its […]

UAE Reports Drone Strike Near Nuclear Plant

The United Arab Emirates has described a drone strike near its Barakah nuclear power plant as a “dangerous escalation” after an attack triggered a fire close to the facility on Sunday. According to the UAE’s defence ministry, three drones entered the country from the western border direction. Air defence systems intercepted two of them, while the third struck an electrical generator located outside the inner security perimeter of the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant in Abu Dhabi. Authorities confirmed that the strike caused a fire, but no injuries were reported and there was no impact on nuclear safety or radiation levels at the site. The UAE’s foreign ministry condemned the incident, calling it an “unacceptable act of aggression” and warning that the country reserves the right to respond to threats against its security and infrastructure. Officials stressed that targeting peaceful nuclear […]

Trump Increases Pressure on Iran

Talks aimed at ending the conflict between the United States and Iran remain deadlocked as President Donald Trump issued a fresh warning to Tehran. The US leader said on Sunday that “the clock is ticking,” urging Iranian authorities to move quickly toward an agreement or face serious consequences. In a message posted on his Truth Social platform, Trump warned that Iran needed to act “fast” to avoid further escalation. His statement comes as negotiations between Washington and Tehran continue to stall despite the ceasefire announced in April. According to Israeli media reports, Trump also held discussions on Sunday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding the situation in the region and the future of the ongoing diplomatic efforts. Iranian media outlets close to the government claim the United States has failed to offer meaningful concessions in response to Tehran’s latest […]

Trump says Xi agrees Iran must open strait, China says war shouldn’t have started

U.S. President Donald Trump says Chinese President Xi Jinping has agreed that Iran must reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but there is still no clear sign that Beijing will directly pressure Tehran to do so. Trump spoke while flying back from Beijing after two days of talks with Xi, where the crisis over Iran and global oil supplies dominated discussions. Iran has effectively shut the vital waterway, which previously carried about one‑fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas, following joint U.S. and Israeli attacks on February 28. The disruption has triggered the biggest oil supply shock in history and sent energy prices soaring, piling pressure on economies already struggling with slow growth. Trump said both leaders shared the goal of preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and of restoring safe passage through the strait. He also revealed […]

India Faces Pressure From Iran War

As the conflict involving Iran enters its third month with no clear resolution in sight, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged citizens to reduce spending and conserve resources amid growing economic pressure linked to rising global energy costs. Speaking during a public event in Hyderabad, Modi encouraged Indians to work from home when possible, limit unnecessary foreign travel, reduce fuel consumption and avoid excessive purchases of gold. The appeal has drawn comparisons to the Covid-19 period, when the government relied on nationwide public participation to manage economic and social challenges. This time, the government’s focus is on protecting India’s foreign exchange reserves and limiting pressure on the national economy as the war in the Middle East disrupts global energy markets. India remains heavily dependent on imported energy, purchasing nearly 90% of its crude oil and about half of its […]

Xi Gives Trump Grand Welcome in Beijing

Chinese President Xi Jinping gave US President Donald Trump a highly ceremonial welcome in Beijing on the opening day of a visit that could reshape relations between the world’s two largest powers. The reception outside the Great Hall of the People featured a military honour guard, a gun salute and performances of the American national anthem. Schoolchildren waving Chinese and US flags lined the route as Trump greeted them during the ceremony. During their meeting, Trump warmly praised Xi, describing him as a “great leader” while highlighting the importance of continued dialogue between both countries. The atmosphere marked a sharp contrast from the harsh rhetoric Trump previously used against China during his political campaigns and trade disputes with Beijing. Over recent years, tensions between Washington and Beijing intensified over tariffs, trade imbalances, Taiwan and geopolitical influence. At the peak of […]

Iran Seizes Vessel in Gulf of Oman

Iranian forces have reportedly seized a vessel operating as a “floating armoury” in the Gulf of Oman, according to maritime security company Vanguard. The ship is said to be heading toward Iranian territorial waters following the incident. The UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) also confirmed that the vessel was moving toward Iranian waters after being intercepted. BBC Verify reviewed tracking information from MarineTraffic, which showed the vessel — identified as the Honduras-flagged Hui Chuan — last transmitted its position about 70km northeast of Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates on Wednesday. According to Vanguard, the operators of the Hui Chuan stated that the ship was functioning as a floating armoury. Such vessels are commonly used by private maritime security companies to store weapons and ammunition for guards protecting commercial ships from piracy attacks. The exact cargo onboard the vessel and […]

UAE Denies Netanyahu’s Secret Visit Claim

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed he made a secret visit to the United Arab Emirates during the recent conflict involving Iran, saying he met UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed in what his office described as a “historic breakthrough”. According to Netanyahu’s office, the meeting focused on strengthening cooperation between Israel and the UAE amid growing regional tensions linked to the war with Iran. Reports suggested the talks took place in the Emirati city of Al-Ain, near the border with Oman. However, the UAE quickly rejected the claims. In an official statement, the Emirati foreign ministry described reports of Netanyahu’s visit as “completely false” and stressed that relations with Israel are conducted openly through the framework of the Abraham Accords, not through secret arrangements. The UAE also reaffirmed its commitment to transparent diplomacy, insisting that no unofficial Israeli […]

Trump heads to China, says no need for Xi’s help on Iran war

US President Donald Trump has travelled to China for a crucial summit with President Xi Jinping, declaring that he does not expect to need Beijing’s help to end the ongoing war with Iran. Speaking to reporters before departing Washington, Trump downplayed China’s potential role in resolving the conflict, which has severely disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. “I don’t think we need any help with Iran. We’ll win it one way or the other, peacefully or otherwise,” he said, in comments that underscored his determination to project confidence despite mounting costs and diplomatic pressure. The war has seen both the US and Iran impede maritime traffic in a waterway that normally carries around one-fifth of the world’s oil supply. Trump’s remarks contrast with expectations from some analysts and allies, who had hoped China might use its economic ties with […]
