## Resource

Iran shuts down the Strait of Hormuz again, blaming Israel and the U.S. for breaking promises, as peace talks kick off in Switzerland with U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner alongside mediators from Pakistan and Qatar. The fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah hangs by a thread, with both sides accusing each other of violations and heavy fighting continuing. Former President Trump adds fuel to the fire, vowing no tolls on the strait and claiming he can sway Israel’s actions. Intelligence warns the White House that Netanyahu may sabotage peace efforts, leaving negotiators racing to prevent a full-blown collapse.
