Iran-War Flashpoint: Trump says the U.S. doesn’t need China to end the Iran war and warns the ceasefire is on “massive life support,” while Iran’s counteroffer keeps talks stalled over nuclear demands, sanctions relief, and Strait of Hormuz sovereignty. Gulf Escalation: New reporting says Saudi Arabia launched unpublicised strikes on Iran in late March, and the UAE also carried out covert attacks, signaling a wider regional fight beyond any “limited” framing. Hormuz Pressure: Iran and Oman held legal-technical talks on navigation and sovereign rights, as Iran expands its operational boundaries around the strait. U.S. Politics & Narrative War: Trump attacks U.S. media as “virtual treason” for portraying Iran as stronger, as Congress grills defense officials over the war’s endgame. Markets & Daily Life: Energy uncertainty keeps oil volatile and inflation pressure rising; in Egypt, food prices and meat/poultry costs mixed on May 12, while investment funds in Q1 2026 jumped to EGP 410.6bn NAV.
