In further comments on his Truth Social app, Donald Trump said “many countries” would send warships to keep the strait of Hormuz open, without providing details on which countries would do so.
He said he hoped the UK, China, France, Japan, South Korea and others will send ships to the area.

Responding to a post by Trump in which he accused the “Fake News Media” of running an “intentionally misleading headline” regarding the five US air force refuelling planes that had reportedly been hit in an Iranian strike in Saudi Arabia, Carr doubled down on claims that the media is pushing fake news and appeared to again advocate for revoking news stations’ broadcast licenses.

“Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions – also known as the fake news – have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up,” Carr wrote.

Trump on Saturday renewed his call for other nations to help secure the strait of Hormuz and said the US will coordinate with them amid the US-Israeli war on Iran.

“The United States of America has beaten and completely decimated Iran, both Militarily, Economically, and in every other way, but the Countries of the World that receive Oil through the Hormuz Strait must take care of that passage, and we will help – A LOT,” the US president wrote in a Truth Social post.

He added that “the US will also coordinate with those Countries so that everything goes quickly, smoothly, and well. This should have always been a team effort, and now it will be – It will bring the World together toward Harmony, Security, and Everlasting Peace!”

Trump’s assertion that “this should have always been a team effort” could be seen as somewhat of a pivot from his earlier stances that Operation Epic Fury was a unilateral (plus Israel) show of force that didn’t require international permission. With the current disruption of global oil supplies, it is increasingly falling onto the international community to help manage the effects.

At the same time, Trump has long argued that the US pays too much to protect global trade routes (like the strait of Hormuz) that he says primarily benefit other countries like China or European nations.

Iran has rejected the possibility of any ceasefire until US and Israeli strikes end, two senior Iranian sources told Reuters, adding that several countries had been trying to mediate an end to the conflict.

One hundred and seventy-five people were killed when a US Tomahawk missile slammed into a girls’ school, apparently because the Pentagon used outdated targeting data for the strike. Hundreds of air-defence missiles were expended as Iran’s initial missile counterattack was mostly parried – but one drone smashed into a makeshift command centre in Kuwait, killing six US troops and wounding dozens more.

Tens of thousands of US citizens were stranded in the region as the state department hurriedly slapped together a taskforce to evacuate them. The US strikes that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei also killed many of the US’s preferred successors; and in his first address, Trump simply told Iranians “when we are finished, take over your government” – with no suggestion on how that might be done.

And the first six days of the war alone cost the US $11.3bn, the Pentagon briefed members of Congress – though it wasn’t clear if those numbers included the cost of the buildup or the US missile defenses as well.

Trump said he had chosen not to wipe out the oil infrastructure on Kharg Island, which serves as the export terminal for 90% of Iran’s oil shipments. But he added: “Should Iran, or anyone else, do anything to interfere with the Free and Safe Passage of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz, I will immediately reconsider this decision.”

The US energy department said it expects initial deliveries of oil from its strategic petroleum reserve will begin moving to the market by the end of next week.

The Pentagon is moving additional Marines and warships to the Middle East, the Wall Street Journal and other outlets reported. US defence secretary Pete Hegseth reportedly approved a request from US Central Command for an element of an amphibious ready group and attached Marine expeditionary unit (MEU). There are differing reports about the size of the contingent to be deployed, but the group typically consists of several warships and 5,000 Marines and sailors.

The UN under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator, called for humanitarian aid to be allowed to pass safely through the strait of Hormuz as the US-Israeli war on Iran continues to disrupt one of the world’s most vital shipping routes. In a statement, Tom Fletcher said this will make it harder and more expensive to deliver critical supplies, including food and medicine. Only 77 ships have so far crossed through the critical waterway this month.

The Swiss government said on Saturday that it discussed requests by US military and official aircraft to fly over the country, and based on its law of neutrality, rejected two but permitted three, according to Reuters.
“The law on neutrality prohibits overflights by parties to the conflict that serve a military purpose related to the conflict. Permitted are humanitarian and medical transits, including the transport of wounded persons, as well as overflights that are unrelated to the conflict,” the government said in a statement.
FCC chair accuses news broadcaster of ‘hoaxes and distortions’ amid US war on Iran
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chair Brendan Carr accused news broadcasters of “running hoaxes and news distortions” amid the ongoing war in Iran in a post on X on Saturday.
Responding to a post by Trump in which he accused the “Fake News Media” of running an “intentionally misleading headline” regarding the five US air force refuelling planes that had reportedly been hit in an Iranian strike in Saudi Arabia, Carr doubled down on claims that the media is pushing fake news and appeared to again advocate for revoking news stations’ broadcast licenses.
“Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions – also known as the fake news – have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up,” Carr wrote.
“The law is clear,” he continued. “Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not.”
He added: “It is very important to bring trust back into media, which has earned itself the label of fake news.”
Abbas Araqchi, the Iranian foreign minister, also told MS Now that the US attacked Kharg Island and Abu Musa Island with low-range artillery from two locations in the UAE, Ras Al-Khaimah and a place “very close to Dubai,” calling that dangerous and saying Iran “will try to be careful not to attack any populated area” there.
The Iranian foreign minister, Abbas Araqchi, told MS Now in an interview on Saturday that there is no problem with Iran’s new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei, after the US defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, claimed on Friday that he was wounded and likely disfigured.
Khamenei, who was recently named to succeed his father after the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in the US-Israeli strikes, has not appeared in public since assuming power, fueling rumors regarding his health and whereabouts. Despite these reports and the intensity of the ongoing conflict, Iranian officials maintain that he remains fully capable of performing his duties.
Trump renews calls for international aid to secure strait of Hormuz
Trump on Saturday renewed his call for other nations to help secure the strait of Hormuz and said the US will coordinate with them amid the US-Israeli war on Iran.
“The United States of America has beaten and completely decimated Iran, both Militarily, Economically, and in every other way, but the Countries of the World that receive Oil through the Hormuz Strait must take care of that passage, and we will help – A LOT,” the US president wrote in a Truth Social post.
He added that “the US will also coordinate with those Countries so that everything goes quickly, smoothly, and well. This should have always been a team effort, and now it will be – It will bring the World together toward Harmony, Security, and Everlasting Peace!”
Trump’s assertion that “this should have always been a team effort” could be seen as somewhat of a pivot from his earlier stances that Operation Epic Fury was a unilateral (plus Israel) show of force that didn’t require international permission. With the current disruption of global oil supplies, it is increasingly falling onto the international community to help manage the effects.
At the same time, Trump has long argued that the US pays too much to protect global trade routes (like the strait of Hormuz) that he says primarily benefit other countries like China or European nations.
Iran orders evacuations for three major ports in UAE
Iran issued an evacuation warning for three major ports in the United Arab Emirates on Saturday, including the busiest in the Middle East, the Associated press reported.
Iran claims the US had used “ports, docks and hideouts” in the UAE to launch strikes on Iran’s Kharg Island. It urged people to evacuate areas where it said US forces were sheltering.
Hours after the threat, there was no sign of an attack on Dubai’s Jebel Ali port or the Khalifa port in Abu Dhabi. But images showed a fire at the third port, in Fujairah, caused by debris from an intercepted Iranian drone hitting an oil facility. Iran says the US attacked from close to Dubai.
US embassy in Iraq issues evacuation alert for US citizens
US citizens should leave Iraq immediately, the US embassy in Baghdad said in an updated security alert on Saturday, following an overnight missile attack on the embassy’s building.
“Americans face a risk of kidnapping, and US individuals have been directly targeted. Iran-aligned terrorist militias may hinder the Iraqi authorities’ ability to respond effectively in emergencies,” the embassy said.
“US citizens should leave Iraq immediately. US citizens who choose to remain in Iraq are encouraged to reconsider their decision given the significant threat posed by Iran-aligned terrorist militias.”
Israeli military says it has killed two senior Iranian officials
The Israeli military says it killed two senior officials in Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Emergency Command in an airstrike on Tehran.
In a post on X, army spokesperson Avichay Adraee said Abdullah Jalali-Nasab and Amir Shariat, described as senior figures in the command’s intelligence branch, were killed in the attack.
“The Air Force attacked yesterday in Tehran and eliminated Abdullah Jalali-Nasab and Amir Shariat, both senior officials in the intelligence apparatus affiliated with the Khatam al-Anbiya Emergency Command, which is directly subordinate to the supreme leader,” he wrote.
Adraee said the attack followed the earlier killing of Saleh Asadi, head of the intelligence unit, at the beginning of the US and Israel’s ongoing assault.
Trump administration rebuffed efforts to start talks about ending Iran war
Trump’s administration has rebuffed efforts by Middle Eastern allies to start diplomatic negotiations aimed at ending the Iran war that started two weeks ago with a massive US-Israeli air assault, according to reporting from Reuters.
Iran has rejected the possibility of any ceasefire until US and Israeli strikes end, two senior Iranian sources told Reuters, adding that several countries had been trying to mediate an end to the conflict. The lack of interest from Washington and Tehran suggests both sides are digging in for an extended conflict, even as the widening war inflicts civilian casualties and Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz sends oil prices soaring.
At lesat 15 people killed after US-Israel strike in Iranian city of Isfahan
At least 15 people were killed when a strike by Israel and the US hit a factory in the central Iranian city of Isfahan, the semi-official Fars news agency said on Saturday.
There were workers inside the factory, which produces heaters and refrigerators, when the strike hit, Fars reported.
Turkish foreign minister Hakan Fidan said on Saturday that Iran had denied responsibility for missiles fired toward Turkey, adding that Ankara was discussing contradictions between Tehran’s statements and available technical data on the launches.
Speaking at a press conference in Ankara, Fidan said Turkish authorities possessed technical data regarding the missiles fired toward Turkey and were raising the inconsistencies with Iranian officials.
