Amid soaring Israel-Iran tensions, dramatic images on social media show three ships engulfed in flames off the Gulf of Oman near the critical Strait of Hormuz. While authenticity remains unverified, NASA’s FIRMS data also detected fires in the same zone. The area, a vital artery for global oil, has long been a flashpoint. No official Emirati response has surfaced yet. As Israel pounds Iran’s military sites, fears rise over possible retaliation through trade disruption, especially a blockade of Hormuz, which sees over 20 million barrels of oil pass daily.

Four major Arab nations — Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, and Jordan — have strongly condemned Israel’s military strikes on Iran, labeling them as violations of sovereignty and international law. Riyadh has called for urgent UN Security Council intervention, while the UAE urged maximum restraint. Kuwait and Jordan warned the strikes threaten Middle East stability. All four nations demand immediate global action to prevent the outbreak of a larger regional war, as fears of a wider Islamic world backlash begin to grow.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor clarified India’s position on third-party mediation amid Operation Sindoor. He revealed that several global powers—including the U.S., France, UAE, and Saudi Arabia—reached out following India’s retaliatory strikes. Tharoor emphasized that India is not seeking war, but acted against terrorism. Any message relayed to Pakistan was indirect, not part of a formal mediation process. Tharoor reaffirmed that India never initiated aggression, maintaining a clear stance: “If they stop, we stop.”

In a dramatic diplomatic twist, Gulf powerhouses Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar reportedly urged President Trump to stand down from launching a military strike on Iran. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed (MBZ), and Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani warned that such action could provoke devastating Iranian retaliation—especially against U.S. bases on Gulf soil. As fears of regional chaos mounted, the Gulf leaders pushed Trump toward diplomacy and a new nuclear deal instead of confrontation. Trump, meanwhile, told Israeli PM Netanyahu to hold back on unilateral action and hinted that a “very strong document” with Iran could be signed soon.

Iran's Parliament has voted to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, branding it a "spy tool" of Western powers. The IRGC’s Sepah News confirmed the vote amid fiery debates and nationalistic sloganeering. Iranian leaders accuse the IAEA of siding with the U.S. and Israel, endangering national sovereignty. Supreme Leader Khamenei declared a "decisive victory" over Western pressure, while Russia’s Foreign Minister warned the IAEA to maintain neutrality. As Tehran escalates its stance, tensions over nuclear transparency and geopolitical influence deepen.

Iran on Wednesday admitted that U.S. and Israeli strikes caused severe damage to its nuclear facilities, validating President Trump’s claim of “complete obliteration.” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei confirmed “significant damage” while refusing to share specifics. In retaliation, Iran’s Parliament fast-tracked a bill suspending cooperation with the IAEA. Despite destruction, Iran vowed to continue its nuclear program.
