Iran-War Escalation: Trump says the U.S.-Iran ceasefire is on “massive life support” and insists stopping Iran’s nuclear program matters more than Americans’ economic pain, while Iran counters with five hardline terms and warns it could enrich uranium to weapons-grade if attacked again. Gulf Retaliation: New reporting says Saudi Arabia launched unpublicized strikes on Iran in late March, and the UAE has also been accused of covert attacks, underscoring a widening regional fight beyond official ceasefire lines. Hormuz Pressure: Iran and Oman held legal-technical talks over sovereign rights and ship passage in the Strait of Hormuz as Tehran expands its operational boundaries. U.S. Politics & Media Clash: Trump attacks U.S. media as “virtual treason” over claims Iran is doing better militarily, while Congress grills Pentagon officials on costs and endgame. Israel & Culture: Israel qualified for Eurovision’s final amid chants of “stop the genocide,” with multiple broadcasters boycotting. Egypt Watch: Egypt’s food prices and investment funds show mixed signals—Q1 fund net assets jumped to about EGP 410.6bn, while daily commodity prices fluctuated on May 12.
