- Description
- The UN Security Council has heard competing accusations from Iran, the United States and Gulf countries over escalating tensions in the Middle East. The debate focused on attacks against commercial shipping, disruption to the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandab, and the threat to global trade, energy supplies and food security.
Iran's ambassador blamed the United States and Israel for the conflict and rejected Security Council Resolution 2817. The US condemned Iran's attacks on neighbouring states and commercial vessels, while Bahrain, speaking for the Gulf Cooperation Council, cited more than 7,000 attacks against GCC states and Jordan. Speakers called for freedom of navigation, protection of seafarers and renewed diplomatic efforts, including mediation involving Oman, Qatar and Pakistan.

- Thousands of passengers across the United States are facing continued disruption after a major communications failure forced the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to halt nearly all departing flights for almost five hours.
Airlines cancelled more than 4,000 flights and delayed another 3,000 on Saturday, November 14, as they struggled to recover from the disruption. The previous day’s ground stop triggered nearly 10,000 cancellations and more than 7,000 delays, leaving passengers stranded at airports across the country.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said investigators were examining whether human error or faulty equipment installed by FAA contractor L3Harris caused the failure. He said an AI scheduling tool and cyberattacks were not responsible.

- US Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy face questions after a nationwide FAA ground stop disrupted air travel. Duffy says instability in the country's ageing air traffic control network, including radar and communications systems, led officials to halt flights as a precaution. More than 3,500 aircraft were initially in the air, and officials say they were brought down safely. Mullin says investigators have found no evidence of a cyberattack, although he says they have not ruled out malicious activity.
Duffy says the disruption exposed the risks of relying on legacy analogue technology and is calling on Congress to approve $50 billion in emergency funding for a complete overhaul of US air traffic control infrastructure. He says the airspace reopened at 8:15pm Eastern time, but warned that delays and cancellations would take time to clear.

- Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Syed Haider Shah, has called for the restoration of safe and unimpeded commercial navigation through the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandab. Addressing the UN Security Council on November 13, 2026, Shah warned that attacks and disruptions at key maritime chokepoints are driving up energy prices and raising concerns about global food insecurity, particularly in vulnerable economies.
Shah condemned attacks on Gulf Cooperation Council countries, including strikes on civilian infrastructure and Houthi threats against Saudi Arabia. He said the Strait of Hormuz carries around one-third of globally traded crude oil and a significant share of global fertilizer trade. Pakistan urged an end to military provocations, protection for commercial vessels and their crews, and renewed dialogue and diplomacy to secure lasting regional stability.

- Former US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg calls for transparency and answers after a nationwide FAA ground stop disrupted air travel. Buttigieg says the aviation system is designed with multiple layers of redundancy to prevent individual technical failures from causing widespread disruption. He questions why those safeguards did not prevent an outage of this scale, while cautioning against speculation before the facts are established.
Buttigieg also defends the Biden administration’s record on upgrading aviation infrastructure, saying the response to the disruption should not become a political dispute. He urges officials at the FAA and Department of Transportation to resolve the problem and explain what happened, as passengers face delays and cancellations across the United States.

- Description
- US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy calls for $50 billion in emergency funding to overhaul the country’s ageing air traffic control system after a nationwide FAA ground stop disrupted flights. Duffy says instability in radar and communications systems forced officials to halt air traffic as a precaution, with more than 3,500 aircraft initially in the air. He attributes the problem to overloaded legacy analogue technology and says newer digital systems did not experience the same issues.
Duffy says the airspace reopened at 8:15pm Eastern time, but warned that flight operations would take time to return to normal as airlines dealt with aircraft and crew availability. He argues that the disruption highlights the need for new hardware, software, telecommunications and airport infrastructure, urging Congress to provide emergency funding for a comprehensive modernisation of US air traffic control.

- Turkey and Qatar have signed a mutual defence agreement as President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met Qatar’s Emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, in Istanbul. The Turkish presidency described the pact as a new step in the countries’ longstanding relationship, but did not disclose its specific terms. The two leaders also discussed expanding cooperation in defence and energy, and efforts to prevent renewed conflict in the Gulf.
The agreement comes as Ankara strengthens its security partnerships across the Middle East. Turkey’s parliament recently ratified the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, which commits the three countries to assist one another if attacked. Turkish lawmakers have described that pact as defensive, while stressing that any deployment of troops would require further parliamentary approval. The details and implications of the separate Turkey-Qatar agreement remain unclear.
