Trump Announces Doha Talks While Iran Rejects the Claim

US Oil Sanctions Return, Seventh Night of Strikes, Kuwait Water Plant Hit

The United States has fully reinstated sanctions on Iranian oil, ending the brief period of sanctions relief and returning Tehran's energy exports to the shadow market. As the Iran oil ban comes back into force, US forces carry out a seventh consecutive night of airstrikes while tensions continue to escalate across the Middle East. In this episode, we break down the renewed US bombing campaign, the tightening naval blockade around Kharg Island, conflicting reports from the Strait of Hormuz, and the attack on Kuwait's Shuaiba desalination plant—critical infrastructure that supplies most of the country's drinking water. We explain why this strike could mark a significant escalation in the conflict and what it means for regional security. We also cover President Trump's latest warnings over Kharg Island and Iran's underground nuclear facilities, the growing political battle in Washington over funding the war, the latest diplomatic developments, and how renewed sanctions and continued fighting are impacting global oil prices, energy markets, inflation, and international trade.
