Iran has once again closed the Strait of Hormuz on 18 April, reversing a brief reopening of the critical maritime corridor after the United States refused to lift its blockade on Iranian ports. Iranian military authorities confirmed on Saturday that the strait has been returned to what they described as its “previous status,” placing it under strict supervision by the country’s armed forces. The decision came just hours after a short-lived window during which commercial vessels were allowed to pass through the strategic waterway. The strait, a critical artery for global energy supplies, typically carries around 20 percent of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas exports. Its repeated closure has sent shockwaves through maritime traffic and energy markets, reversing earlier optimism sparked by a temporary reopening tied to a ceasefire in Lebanon. US President Donald Trump maintained that a broader peace deal with Iran was “very close,” despite the renewed disruption. His comments followed a wave of optimism on Friday, when Tehran briefly reopened the strait after a ceasefire agreement aimed at halting Israel’s conflict with Hezbollah. However, Washington’s insistence on maintaining a naval blockade of Iranian ports untilContinue reading "Iran Closes Strait of Hormuz Again, Saying It Will Remain Shut Until US Blockade Is Lifted"

Egypt has welcomed the announcement of a 10-day ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel, describing it as a positive step toward de-escalation, according to a statement released on Thursday 16 April. The agreement, announced by US President Donald Trump, comes amid escalating cross-border hostilities that have raised concerns over a wider regional conflict. In its statement, Egypt said the ceasefire presents an opportunity to reduce tensions and halt ongoing military operations that have contributed to instability along the Lebanon–Israel border. Egypt stressed the importance of fully adhering to the truce, calling for an end to all military actions and urging the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 as a basis for restoring stability. Egypt also reaffirmed its support for Lebanon’s sovereignty, unity, and territorial integrity, while calling on the international community to ensure the ceasefire holds and facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid. The truce took effect later on Thursday, with fighting between Israel and Hezbollah continuing in the hours leading up to its implementation. The deal follows weeks of escalating violence that has left thousands dead and displaced large numbers of civilians in Lebanon, amid broader regional tensions linkedContinue reading "Egypt Welcomes Lebanon–Israel Ceasefire Announcement"
