Tehran believes the Strait of Hormuz is its strongest weapon in this war. The US is making it increasingly expensive to use. Iran says it struck two American vessels and eight oil tankers in the Gulf this week. The US says the claim that Iran hit American warships is false, and separate reports of merchant ships being struck do not confirm Iran’s account of the tankers. Whatever the real scale, the attacks came after the US destroyed five Iranian oil tankers on Tuesday, 10 in a week by Central C

New York commemorated the 25th anniversary of the devastating attacks of September 11, 2001 on Friday with a ceremony marred by controversy over President Donald Trump’s absence, and right-wing outrage over the attendance of the city’s first Muslim mayor. In an unusual move, Trump paid his respects at the Pentagon, rather than joining the event in New York, where hijacked planes destroyed the World Trade Centre and killed most of the 2,977 total victims on that world-altering day. Vice President
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghaei: "The Islamic Republic of Iran considers itself committed to ensuring the security of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, but naturally, as long as the aggressive actions and illegal interventions of the United States, including the maritime blockade and economic war, continue, the security of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz cannot be guaranteed."

Relatives of those killed in the 9/11 attacks on Friday called out Saudi Arabia for alleged complicity in the carnage -- and chided past US presidents in attendance at a remembrance ceremony for failing to call Riyadh to account. The September 11, 2001 attacks were carried out by mostly Saudi hijackers and orchestrated by mastermind Osama bin Laden, a wealthy Saudi who founded Al-Qaeda. Washington maintains strong military and diplomatic ties with the kingdom.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi: The U.S. Treasury Secretary has been gleefully boasting about wanting to impoverish Iranians and collapse our economy.

The Trump administration is drafting a postwar regional strategy that is built around containing Iran and expanding Israeli-Arab normalization, according to a widely circulated report this week. This should alarm anyone, especially in the Middle East, who has watched the region’s geopolitical reality speed toward a dangerous tipping point since Oct. 7, 2023. The US approach underscores a return to the same old mentality by American strategists, which has failed to prevent multiple regional catas

LONDON: The Council for Arab-British Understanding has written to UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband asking if the government’s new sanctions on illegal Israeli settlements will apply to the occupied Syrian Golan Heights. Caabu’s director, Chris Doyle, highlighted that the 34 Israeli settlements in the Golan — with a population of about 30,000 — were just as illegal as those in the occupied West Bank. In a press release, the council described the settlements as a “flagrant breach of the Fourth Gen

Last week, while much of the US military’s attention remained focused on the Middle East and the Strait of Hormuz, thousands of kilometers to the north, American forces were participating in another important operation. US Marines joined British and Norwegian forces for “Operation Atlantic City 26” on Jan Mayen, a remote island in the Norwegian Sea, about 1,000 kilometers from mainland Norway. The volcanic island, about the same size as the Gaza Strip, has no permanent population. But at any giv
