US Central Command (CENTCOM) reported that its forces have redirected 94 commercial vessels and boarded two ships in the Arabian Sea while enforcing a blockade against Iran.

British Prime Minister Andy Burnham and U.S. President Donald Trump held a phone call on Monday, with Downing Street stating they agreed to continue working toward a Ukrainian ceasefire. This diplomatic exchange occurred one day after U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met with both President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv and President Vladimir Putin in Moscow, expressing hope for renewed trilateral negotiations.
Iranian state media announced the deployment of the solid-fueled Qassem Basir missile, which officials described as marking a strategic shift toward preemptive action against perceived threats, though it remains unverified whether this specific system was involved in recent incidents.
This announcement follows a U.S. statement that it intercepted Iranian ballistic missiles launched at its warships and retaliated by striking three Iranian oil tankers, an exchange experts identified as a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict.
