Iran threatens to close Strait of Hormuz; Trump nominates new ICE director

Iran has announced plans to close the Strait of Hormuz, alleging violations of the ceasefire. No timeline for the closure was provided. This move could significantly impact global oil shipping.

US President Donald Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth had earlier telegraphed military action, and the US launched a second straight day of airstrikes in Iran. Meanwhile, Trump stated that an agreement with Iran would be signed on Sunday, though Tehran has not publicly confirmed this timeline.

Separately, Trump has tapped Oklahoma law enforcement official Lance Schroyer to lead ICE. Schroyer, who has helped oversee ICE partnerships, would become the agency's first Senate-confirmed director since 2017.
