AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

West Bank Violence: US Ambassador Mike Huckabee denounced settler sieges in Qusra and Qusra-area homes, as families reported dwindling food and water and UN-linked accounts described children trapped indoors. US-Iran Strait of Hormuz: The US warned it could maintain an “indefinite” naval blockade of Iran, while Iran keeps traffic constrained; officials disputed how many ships are actually transiting, as oil prices steadied but fears of supply shocks persist. Oil & Environment: Two ADNOC-linked vessels were attacked in the Strait of Hormuz; Iran-linked spill impacts were reported around Qeshm and Hengam, with cleanup underway. Regional Security Pacts: Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan signed the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement, with joint exercises and ministerial mechanisms planned—raising questions about how it fits with US alliances. Iraq’s Balancing Act: Iraq seeks outreach to Syria and Saudi Arabia to rein in Iran-backed militias as Baghdad pushes militia arms under state control. Syria Accountability: A Syrian court sentenced ousted President Bashar al-Assad to death in absentia for crimes against humanity. Diplomatic Flashpoint: Russian-Israeli historian Artyom Kirpichenok disappeared after arriving in Israel; Russian officials say Shin Bet may be holding him.
