## Resource

Iran shuts down the Strait of Hormuz again, blaming Israel and U.S. bad faith, as tense peace talks kick off in Switzerland with U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner leading negotiations — a fragile 60-day window to end the conflict, after a canceled Vance trip and amid ongoing Israeli-Hezbollah violence that’s already killed 16, including children, despite a ceasefire. Mediators race to stop the bloodshed as intelligence warns Netanyahu may sabotage peace efforts, turning diplomacy into a high-stakes gamble.
