Iran-US tensions remain high. Reuters, citing Iran's IRGC Navy, reports several oil tankers caught fire in the Strait of Hormuz, reportedly after striking mines; Iran reportedly claims it could reopen the strait within two days if its terms are accepted, an unverified claim. Iranian officials reportedly warned of retaliation against regional AI infrastructure and energy assets, and a letter from JD Vance was reportedly received but not answered. In Gaza, at least four Palestinians were reportedly killed in Israeli strikes, including on the Nuseirat camp. Most other items rest on single unconfirmed Telegram accounts.
