- The US military blockade of all Iranian ports and coastal areas began on Monday as US President Donald Trump warned any "fast attack ships" caught trying to approach the blockade will be "eliminated".
Posting on Truth Social, Trump said if attack ships came near the US navy blockade, they would be destroyed "using the same system of kill that we use against the drug dealers on boats at Sea" a day after ceasefire talks between the US and Iran ended without reaching an agreement.
However, after Pope Leo condemned the United States' role in the conflict, the president's focus on Monday night remained fixed on the Vatican.

- Description
- Warning, this report contains details you may find distressing.
Those involved in the care and monitoring of the Southport killer "fundamentally failed" to appreciate the "evident high level of danger" he posed - leading to an "act of chilling brutality", an inquiry has found.
Axel Rudakubana, 19, was consistently passed between organisations with a "disturbing lack of clarity as to who, if anyone, was the lead" in ensuring the risk he posed was communicated.
The parents of the teenager, who was jailed for a minimum of 52 years, also had an "irresponsible and harmful attitude" to sharing information, meaning they did not do what they "morally ought to have done" and "report the clear escalation in risk".
All this - the report said, meant his attack on a children’s dance class “could and should have been prevented”.

- The attack in Southport, July 2024 was "a chilling act of brutality" which "could have and should have been prevented."
This is according to a damning report by Sir Adrian Fulford, the Chair of The Southport Inquiry.
Three little girls, Bebe King, Alicia da Silva and Elsie Dot Stancombe, were murdered when a teenager wielding a knife burst into a dance class. Eight other children and two adults were wounded.
The Southport Inquiry, held over nine weeks at Liverpool Town Hall in 2025, looked at what happened before and during the attack, identifying missed opportunities and systemic failures.

- "The only time I was really happy was when I was in that gym or I was injecting or taking a tablet."
Zak Wilkinson became addicted to steroids. After years of abusing performance-enhancing drugs, he nearly died after falling into a coma.
ITV's Tonight programme has been told there are believed to be over one million performance-enhancing drug and anabolic steroid users in the UK, with more people turning to tablets and injections to become fitter and stronger.
This is all despite clear NHS advice warning against using these drugs without a prescription.
Yet, few understand the dangers of performance-enhancing drugs more than Zak, who started abusing steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs as a teenage boy.
By the time he was an adult, he was taking 17 performance-enhancing drug injections and 49 tablets a week.
The cost was more than just financial. His addiction nearly ended his life.

Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, Bebe King, six, and Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, were murdered when Axel Rudakabana entered a Taylor Swift-themed dance workshop in The Hart Space, armed with a knife, on July 29 2024.
A public inquiry has found that the killer had “clearly revealed” he was an extreme danger and his attack on a children’s dance class “could and should have been prevented".
The teenager, who was jailed for a minimum of 52 years, could have been stopped if his parents had “done what they morally ought to have done”, or if appropriate arrangements had been put in place by agencies to address his risk, chairman of the Southport Inquiry Sir Adrian Fulford said in his report, published on Monday.

It comes after the prime minister said the UK will not get dragged into the war in Iran, and has refused to support Donald Trump’s blockade of Iran's ports.
The US military says it will begin a blockade of all Iranian ports and coastal areas on Monday, in a move that has once again caused oil prices to jump to more than $100 a barrel.
Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live, Starmer said: “What we’ve been doing over the last few weeks – and this was part of what I was discussing with the Gulf states last week – is bringing countries together to keep the strait open, not shut.
“We’re not supporting the blockade and all of the marshalling diplomatically, politically and capability – we do have mine-sweeping capability, I won’t go into operational matters, but we do have that capability – that’s all focused, from our point of view, on...

- It’s taken a lot of steps and lives to get here, but for the first time, Scotland’s legal system has recognised the link between domestic abuse and suicide.
The landmark conviction of Lee Milne for culpable homicide over the death of his wife, Kimberly, in Dundee in July 2023, followed a trial at the Glasgow High Court. Milne, 40, was jailed at the same court on Friday for eight years.
It marks a significant shift in the Scottish justice system, recognising that perpetrators of domestic violence can be held to account when their abuse drives a victim to take their own life.
Campaigners and charities have long called for this recognition.
Their cause for celebration comes at the cost of tragedy and loss of life.
In 2023, after an argument with her husband, Milne, 28-year-old Kimberly jumped to her death from a motorway bridge in Dundee.

- The final and most difficult part of the Aretmis II voyage will take place tonight, with the crew navigating the dangers of re-entering the atmosphere before they splash down back on Earth.
After 10 days, the four crew members will return from their journey, which has seen them travel the furthest distance from Earth any human ever has before.
Their journey is part of Nasa's long-term plan to return humans to the surface of the Moon – part of its broader mission to put feet on the ground of Mars.
Returning to Earth is seen as one of the most difficult tasks of any spacecraft.
The extreme heat and turbulence generated by re-entering the atmosphere presents a significant engineering challenge and is seen as one of the most dangerous parts of the trip.
Speaking on Wednesday, pilot Victor Glover said he'd been thinking about the difficulty of re-entry since the day he was assigned to the mission on April 3 2023.

In this explainer, presented by ITV News reporter Lorna Shaddick, we break down how Orbán’s ruling Fidesz party has built an electoral system designed to guarantee victory through gerrymandering, controversial "voter tourism," and alleged intimidation.
As his grip on power slips, experts say the government's tactics are getting darker. We expose the unprecedented use of AI-generated deepfakes designed to terrify voters, open coordination with the Kremlin, and a mysterious bomb plot near a Serbian gas pipeline that opposition figures fear could...

- Emma Murphy reports from Tehran:
The Strait of Hormuz is open, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister told me this morning.
Any civilian vessel can pass with guidance from the Iranian authorities.
That guidance is necessary because, as part of this war, Iran mined the crucial waterway, and those mines remain, he said.
The Iranians have the maps and locations for safe passage.
Why does this matter? Because Iran’s control of the Strait during this war has caused a global energy and economic crisis.
The passage of vessels is in part what has pushed the United States to the negotiating table.
However, the Strait being open is Iran’s greatest power and key to any ceasefire. If the Americans and Israelis don't agree to Iran's key demands, the Strait can be closed again.
And passage is only with Iran's agreement, however open it might be.

- We report from inside Tehran on the first day of 'precarious' Iran-US ceasefire
- Date posted
- 5 days ago
- Description
- ITV News reports from inside the Iranian capital of Tehran, as the shakey ceasefire between Iran and the US appears to be hanging by a thread - if it exists at all.
It comes after US President Donald Trump announced he had agreed to a two-week ceasefire with Tehran, which would see a pause in military strikes against Iran and a reopening of the vital Strait of Hormuz.
Israel has said it has agreed to the ceasefire, but insists that it does not apply to its conflict with Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Israeli missiles hit several dense commercial and residential areas in Lebanon on Wednesday without warning, hours after the ceasefire was announced.
The Israeli military called it the "largest coordinated strike" in the current conflict, striking more than 100 Hezbollah targets within 10 minutes in Beirut, southern Lebanon and the eastern Bekaa valley.

- Will the ceasefire in Iran help the UK economy?
- Date posted
- 6 days ago
- Description
- The ceasefire announcement between Iran and the USA has triggered a fall in global oil prices, and stock markets rallied after weeks of economic turmoil.
The US-Israeli strikes on Iran and Tehran’s response, including targeting Gulf states and effectively closing the Strait of Hormuz, had sent fossil fuel prices soaring around the world.
Petrol and diesel costs for motorists in the UK rose sharply after Trump launched his military action.
The average price of diesel was 190.6p on Wednesday morning, up 34% since February 28 when the US-Israeli campaign began, while average unleaded prices reached 157.7p, up 19%, the RAC said.
