AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Iran-US Tensions: Trump says he’s called off a planned Tuesday strike on Iran after requests from Gulf leaders, while warning the U.S. is ready for a “full, large-scale assault” if talks fail. Oil Shock: Markets slid as oil climbed on renewed Gulf supply fears; Strait of Hormuz remains effectively shut to most shipping, keeping inflation worries front and center. Lebanon/Israel Front: Fighting continues despite a ceasefire extension, with Lebanon’s death toll reported near 3,000 as strikes persist. West Bank Security: Israel warns of a worsening terror threat, citing deeper Iranian and Turkish involvement alongside Hamas efforts to expand activity across the territory. Local Flashpoint: In San Diego, an active-shooter report at the Islamic Center ended with three victims dead and both suspects found dead; police say the threat was neutralized. Humanitarian/Shipping: A Gaza-bound flotilla saw Malaysians detained after interception, underscoring how aid routes are getting squeezed.
