On Saturday, Iranian media reported that a commander from the Iranian Revolutionary Guards issued a threat to close the Mediterranean Sea in response to perceived "crimes" by the US and its allies in Gaza.
The report did not elaborate on the specific means by which this closure would be achieved.
Iran is a supporter of Hamas in its opposition to Israel, alleging that the US is backing Israeli actions in Gaza, where weeks of bombardment have led to numerous casualties and forced a significant portion of the population to flee their homes.
Lord Cameron has warned Britain and the wider West is "at a crossroads" at the Lord Mayor's Banquet in London and that "our adversaries will write our future for us" if countries fail to act. The foreign secretary added he would like the fighting to stop in Gaza "now", but that calling for an immediate ceasefire "does not make that more likely". Report by Brooksl.

Hamas announced on Friday its intention to send a delegation to Cairo to discuss a potential hostages-for-truce agreement with Israel. This development coincided with the arrival of US CIA Director William Burns in the Egyptian capital, as reported by Egyptian sources. Egypt, along with Qatar and the United States, has been actively mediating between Israel and Hamas, aiming to broker a ceasefire in the Gaza conflict, which escalated following Hamas's devastating attack on October 7. According to an Egyptian security source, Hamas and CIA representatives are scheduled to meet Egyptian mediators on Saturday. However, it remains unclear whether these meetings will be held separately or together. Hamas expressed its delegation's positive outlook towards the discussions after reviewing the latest truce proposal, affirming its determination to secure an agreement that meets Palestinian demands. While the United States has acknowledged some progress in the negotiations, the CIA declined to comment, adhering to its policy of not disclosing the director's travel details.

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian announced that the crew of a Portuguese-flagged ship, allegedly linked to Israel and including Indian nationals, has been granted consular access and is expected to be released. This information, reported by Reuters citing Iranian media, sheds light on the situation surrounding the container vessel MSC Aries, which had a crew of 25 members, including 17 Indians. Notably, one of the Indian crew members, Ann Tessa Joseph, was released and returned home on April 18. The seizure of MSC Aries by Iran's Revolutionary Guards occurred in the Strait of Hormuz on April 13, shortly after Tehran declared its intent to retaliate for a suspected Israeli strike on its consulate in Damascus.

This is the moment Iran launched more than 300 drone and missile attacks on multiple cities in Israel for the first time. Tehranâs attack is in retaliation to an airstrike on an Iranian diplomatic building in Damascus, Syria which killed two generals and several of Iranâs Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) officers earlier this month. Iran told local media that the attack âachieved all its objectivesâ, and warned it would use greater force if Israel retaliates. Israel hailed its successful air defences, claiming that it and its allies intercepted most targets. Its military also said that one child had been injured. Report by Bangurak.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed on Sunday that his country would emerge victorious after the military reported successfully intercepting almost all of the more than 300 drones and missiles launched by Iran, marking a significant escalation in the Middle East conflict. Tehran's attacks, launched in retaliation for a suspected Israeli airstrike on its embassy compound in Damascus on April 1 that resulted in the deaths of officers from the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, have heightened the risk of a broader regional conflict.

With concerns over civilian safety, the decision followed Israel's rejection of a Hamas truce offer. Despite ongoing military engagement, the Biden administration seeks to prevent escalation and review future military aid. The delicate balance highlights U.S. efforts to navigate regional stability and humanitarian concerns.
