- Can Asian economies cope with the fallout from the Iran war? | Counting the Cost
- Date posted
- 40 minutes ago
- Description
- Working from home. Fuel queues. Blackouts. This is the fallout from the war on Iran across Asia. Governments are scrambling to shield their economies from the worst of the energy crisis.
Some are rationing fuel. Others are reintroducing subsidies or limiting exports altogether. And the longer the Strait of Hormuz remains disrupted, the worse it gets - so much so for vulnerable economies.
Rising oil prices are driving up import bills — just as remittances fall and currencies weaken. Dollar-priced fuel, food, fertiliser and debt all have become more expensive, forcing governments to burn through reserves, borrow more or cut elsewhere.

- Israel turning south Lebanon into Gaza, war surgeon warns
- Date posted
- 2 hours ago
- Description
- In an interview on Al Jazeera, war surgeon Dr Mohammed Tahir, , CEO of the Al-Resaleh Foundation who has spent seven months in Gaza and the past few weeks in southern Lebanon, warned that Israel is "turning the south of Lebanon into Gaza" and "wiping the south off the map." If Israel had its way, he said, it "would absolutely occupy the entire southern region of Lebanon and they would do it tomorrow."
Dr Tahir described Israeli use of a warhead containing thousands of tiny tungsten cubes, calling it "effectively a modern day nail bomb." The cubes leave only a tiny scratch on the skin but cause devastating internal injuries. "There's no way that this can be a precision strike," he said. He added that he has seen "absolutely no evidence" of Israeli claims that Hezbollah uses ambulances to move weapons.
He said at least 103 Lebanese medical workers have been killed since March 2, adding that he was "not surprised" as he saw the same targeting of healthcare workers in Gaza. On ...

This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks with former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, who led Israel during the 2006 Lebanon war, about Hezbollah, civilian deaths, and his assessment of the US-Israeli war on Iran.

- Will US respond positively to Iran’s latest proposal? Experts ask
- Date posted
- 3 hours ago
- Description
- Analysts speaking to Al Jazeera said renewed tensions in the Strait of Hormuz risk undermining diplomatic efforts between Iran and the United States, even as Tehran has formally responded to a US proposal delivered through Pakistani mediators.
Sultan al-Khulaifi, a senior researcher at the Center for Conflict and Humanitarian Studies in Qatar, said Iran’s response appeared to show some movement on nuclear-related assurances but not on transferring enriched uranium outside the country. He argued that recent attacks in the Gulf were intended to maintain pressure on oil markets, Gulf states and Washington, but warned such actions were “unacceptable” and would make rebuilding confidence in the region far more difficult.
Abbas Aslani, a senior research fellow at the Center for Middle East Strategic Studies in Tehran, said Iran viewed ongoing US military activity in the region as complicating diplomatic efforts. He argued that both sides needed to return to negotiations if ...

But while diplomacy continues behind the scenes, the economic impact of the conflict is already being felt worldwide.
Global food prices have climbed to their highest levels in more than three years, according to the United Nations, driven by rising fuel costs, fertilizer shortages, and growing supply chain disruptions linked to instability in the Middle East.
At the same time, environmental concerns are mounting after satellite images appeared to show an oil slick spreading near Iran’s Kharg Island — the country’s main petroleum export hub.

- Description
- Tensions are escalating once again along the Israel-Lebanon border as Israeli forces issue forced evacuation orders for multiple towns and villages in southern Lebanon before launching a new wave of airstrikes, drone attacks, and artillery bombardments.
Over the past 48 hours, the death toll in southern Lebanon has continued to rise amid reports of ongoing demolitions carried out by Israeli troops inside a 10-kilometer military zone declared by Israel inside Lebanese territory.
The escalation comes just days before low-level diplomatic talks between Lebanon and Israel are expected to begin in Washington, D.C., raising questions about the future of the fragile ceasefire agreement.

- Putin’s muted victory day parade signals growing war pressure
- Date posted
- 22 hours ago
- Description
- Russia’s annual Victory Day celebration in Moscow looked dramatically different this year as President Vladimir Putin presided over a scaled-down military parade amid growing security concerns linked to the war in Ukraine.
No heavy military equipment rolled through Red Square, fireworks were cancelled, and public events across Victory Park were shut down due to fears of possible Ukrainian drone attacks. Instead, video displays showcased Russian military hardware currently being used on the Ukrainian frontlines.
During the ceremony, Putin compared Russia’s war in Ukraine to the Soviet Union’s fight during World War II and praised troops involved in the “special military operation.” North Korean troops reportedly involved in Russia’s Kursk operations also marched in the parade.
Meanwhile, Moscow and Kyiv agreed to a temporary 3-day ceasefire and prisoner exchange reportedly mediated by US President Donald Trump.
