## Resource

Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz are escalating as U.S. and Iranian forces trade blows after attacks on ships, triggering a sharp drop in global oil traffic. President Trump confirms talks with Iran will continue but declares the ceasefire over, a move that briefly spiked oil prices before stabilizing. Both sides blame each other for breaking the ceasefire agreement — the U.S. accuses Iran of launching attacks, while Iran claims U.S. actions violate its sovereignty. After a few nights of military activity, hostilities have calmed, but behind-the-scenes mediation is underway. Iran also mourned its former Supreme Leader, killed in an airstrike, as questions arise about his successor’s health and role. The disruption is already rattling energy markets and forcing nations to tap emergency reserves — a growing threat to the global economy.
