TBN Israel’s Yair Pinto report on the Israel-Iran and regional war.
HORMUZ: The United States struck an oil tanker near the Strait of Hormuz after the crew reportedly ignored repeated warnings during the naval blockade. CENTCOM says American forces also intercepted Iranian ballistic missiles and drones aimed toward the region, while Iran claimed it was responding to the U.S. strike near Hormuz.
GULF ATTACKS: Kuwait and Bahrain were placed on alert after Iranian missiles and drones were launched toward Gulf states. According to the report, American forces intercepted Iranian drones aimed at civilian vessels, while missiles launched toward Kuwait and Bahrain were either intercepted or broke apart before hitting their targets.
IRAN: President Trump is hardening his position against Tehran, declaring that there will be no deal with Iran except “unconditional surrender.” At the same time, negotiations continue behind the scenes, with major disputes still surrounding sanctions, frozen Iranian assets, uranium enrichment, and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
ENERGY WAR: Behind the headlines about a possible agreement, a larger battle is unfolding over global energy, oil prices, the dollar, and control of key shipping lanes. Yair Pinto and Mati Shoshani explain why Hormuz is not only a military flashpoint, but one of the most important pressure points in the global economy.
LEBANON: The Israeli Air Force bombed a secret Hezbollah bunker in Lebanon with about 100 bombs, while negotiations between Israel and Lebanon continue. Israel is demanding freedom of action in Lebanon even under a ceasefire, in case Hezbollah or any other terrorist organization builds infrastructure or launches attacks from Lebanese territory.
ABRAHAM ACCORDS: President Trump is also pressuring Arab and Muslim countries to join the Abraham Accords as part of a broader regional move. The report examines whether a future agreement with Iran could also force a new wave of normalization with Israel — or whether Tehran and Hezbollah are trying to sabotage it before it begins.
