Donald Trump said the US will organise joint patrols of the Strait of Hormuz to secure oil flows, coordinating with Iran. He signalled that any breach of commitments by Tehran would trigger a strong US response, insisting the route must remain open to global trade.
Security agencies are probing a possible Iran link to arson attacks on four ambulances serving a Jewish community in north London. Specialist officers are leading the inquiry. The PM condemned the incidents as antisemitic and pledged stronger protection and a determined pursuit of those responsible.
A fire destroyed ambulances at a Jewish medical charity in London, which police are treating as a suspected hate crime. A family whose baby previously received lifesaving care praised the volunteers’ compassion and support for all communities. Police appeals and inquiries continue.
Trump paused planned US military action, citing “productive” talks with Tehran. Washington extended a deadline to reopen a key oil shipping route, while Tehran denied any contact. The move aims to ease tensions as both sides weigh whether dialogue can prevent further escalation.
