Iran offers to reopen Strait of Hormuz if US lifts its blockade and the war ends, officials say

Iran has offered to end its chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for the US lifting its blockade on the country and an end to the war, while proposing that discussions on the larger question of its nuclear program would come in a later phase, two regional officials say. US President Donald Trump seems unlikely to accept the offer, which was passed to the Americans by Pakistan and would leave unresolved the disagreements that led the US and Israel to go to war on February 28. With a fragile ceasefire in place, the US and Iran are locked in a standoff over the strait, through which a fifth of the world's traded oil and gas passes in peacetime. The US blockade is designed to prevent Iran from selling its oil, depriving it of crucial revenue while also potentially creating...

As tensions escalate in the Strait of Hormuz after US and Iran both fire at ships

The Strait of Hormuz was on lockdown on Monday after a tense weekend in which Iran was accused of attacking two Indian-flagged vessels and the U.S. Marines fired at and seized an Iranian-flagged ship. The escalating tensions over the vital passage for oil and international trade came amid a U.S. naval blockade of the strait and Iran's declaration on Sunday that it had closed the waterway after briefly reopening it. The heightening hostilities over the strait are occurring as Iran announced it will not send negotiators to Pakistan for a second round of peace talks with their U.S. counterparts, including Vice President JD Vance.

US war with Iran hints at limits of ‘Make Europe Great Again’ project, analysts say

President Donald Trump's announcement of a joint U.S.-Israeli surprise attack on Iran in February was met with little enthusiasm in Europe, where leaders were quick to warn of the political and economic turmoil that America's latest Middle East campaign would unleash.

Some European nations have allowed U.S. forces to continue using key military bases to launch attacks and have taken part in defensive operations to shoot down Iranian munitions targeting regional bases and nations. But there appears to be little appetite for a full and open-ended entanglement with Iran among European voters, even those who support the nationalist, anti-establishment parties that have so...

FBI Director Kash Patel sues The Atlantic for $348 million over claims of drunkenness

FBI Director Kash Patel is suing magazine The Atlantic for $US250 million (A$348 million) over reports of his alleged drunkenness. The article published last week referenced instances of Patel's excessive alcohol consumption impacting his job. But in a lawsuit filed today against the magazine and journalist Sarah Fitzpatrick, Patel described the article as a "sweeping, malicious and defamatory hit piece". FBI Director Kash Patel is suing The Atlantic over reports of drunkenness. (AP) "Fitzpatrick could not get a single person to go on the record in defence of these outrageous allegations, instead relying entirely on anonymous sources she knew to be both highly partisan with an axe to grind and also not in a position to know the facts," the lawsuit read.
