Summary
Tens of thousands of Iranians flooded Tehran to mourn Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as his successor Mojtaba Khamenei stayed conspicuously absent—though three of his brothers attended. Amid the grief, a speaker openly wished for Donald Trump’s death, echoing tensions amplified by Trump’s recent remarks. Iran and Qatar have restarted maritime trade, while Tehran plans new fees for ships in the Strait of Hormuz—with exemptions for allies. Speculation swirls over Mojtaba’s health after a February attack that killed his father; he’s vanished from public view since assuming leadership. Iran’s parliament speaker doubled down on backing Hezbollah, calling their role a “historic turning point,” while OPEC+ agreed to raise oil output by 188,000 barrels daily starting August. Meanwhile, the U.S. Navy called off its search for a missing helicopter crewman in the Arabian Sea, after recovering three of four aboard.
