## Resource

Iran’s drone strike on Bahrain and a vessel in the Strait of Hormuz marks a dangerous escalation following U.S. airstrikes targeting Iranian missile and drone sites. With tensions flaring amid fragile ceasefire talks, Bahrain condemned the attack as a threat to its people, while Iran’s Revolutionary Guard claimed U.S. military sites were hit — though specifics remain vague. Meanwhile, a new shipping route near Oman could further inflame tensions, as Tehran seeks to assert control over the vital waterway. With just 60 days left to finalize a broader deal covering the strait and Iran’s nuclear program, the world watches as diplomacy teeters on the edge of conflict.
