Hormuz Flashpoint: US forces struck two Iranian-flagged tankers in the Gulf of Oman as the blockade and ceasefire jitters continued, while Iran’s top adviser likened the Strait of Hormuz to an “atomic bomb.” Sanctions Escalation: The US Treasury added 12 entities and individuals—including firms in Hong Kong, Dubai and Oman—to target IRGC-linked oil shipments to China, warning banks to flag suspected money-laundering and sanctions-evasion. Diplomacy Under Strain: Iran says its latest proposal delivered via Pakistan was “reasonable and generous,” but Trump called Tehran’s response “totally unacceptable,” with the ceasefire described as on “life support.” Market Shock: Oil and safe-haven assets reacted again as traders weighed renewed risk to Hormuz passage; Saudi Aramco’s CEO warned normalization depends on resolving the Iran conflict soon. Oman Angle: Oman appears in the sanctions list tied to the IRGC oil network, even as regional logistics keep rerouting trade.
