US President Donald Trump threatened military action over the Strait of Hormuz, while Hamas accepted a second-phase Gaza proposal opposed by Israel's disarmament demand.

US President Donald Trump stated that Iran must not acquire nuclear weapons, warning of potential military escalation if Tehran or Oman obstructs American plans regarding the Strait of Hormuz. The statement follows Iranian warnings that Tehran will adopt an offensive posture if diplomatic efforts fail.

Concurrently, Hamas announced its acceptance of Trump's proposed second phase for a settlement in Gaza. However, Israel maintains that Hamas must undergo complete disarmament before any withdrawal of Israeli forces can occur.

Tensions remain high in the strategic maritime corridor following recent security incidents involving commercial shipping, while diplomatic channels mediated by Oman continue to focus on safe passage.
