Israel-Lebanon ceasefire extension was announced by Trump but shortly after, Israel and Hezbollah tensions escalated again. Rockets were fired toward Israel following a strike on a Lebanese village. The Israeli military confirmed it targeted a missile launcher in response, while air defence systems intercepted incoming threats.

Strait of Hormuz tensions have escalated sharply after US President Donald Trump ordered the military to take action against boats deploying mines in the region. The directive comes as US naval forces intensified operations, including boarding and seizing a tanker linked to Iranian oil networks. Footage released by the Pentagon shows US forces carrying out a boarding operation at sea, highlighting the growing scale of maritime enforcement. The Strait of Hormuz remains a critical global shipping route, and the US has stepped up mine-clearing and patrol efforts to maintain the flow of trade.
