Iran war and Middle East conflict
Tensions between the US and Iran have escalated into open conflict, with airstrikes and drone attacks hitting targets in Kuwait, Bahrain, and the Strait of Hormuz. The US House of Representatives voted to limit President Trump's war powers, delivering a bipartisan rebuke, but the measure is largely symbolic and unlikely to become law. Meanwhile, the conflict has disrupted global energy markets, with the Strait of Hormuz partially closed, causing oil prices to remain elevated and threatening a prolonged economic fallout even if a ceasefire is reached. Diplomatic efforts remain stalled, with Iran reporting no progress in talks and Israel continuing operations in Lebanon despite a new ceasefire agreement.
Points clés
- The US House voted 215-208 to require congressional approval for further military action against Iran, with four Republicans joining Democrats.
- Kuwait International Airport was hit by Iranian drones, killing one person and injuring over 60, leading to a temporary shutdown.
- The Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed, with oil prices about 30% above pre-war levels and experts warning that a full recovery could take months or years.
- Iran's Foreign Minister said talks with the US have made no progress, while Trump claimed negotiations are going 'very well'.
- Israel and Lebanon agreed to a new ceasefire, but Israel continued drone strikes in southern Lebanon and said it would maintain a buffer zone.
- The conflict has caused significant economic damage in South Korea, with the won falling to a two-month low and the stock market dropping nearly 2%.
- Iran's supreme leader accused the US and Israel of trying to divide Iranian society after their 'defeat'.

Conclusion
The Iran war has entered its 100th day with no clear end in sight. While the US House has signaled growing opposition to the conflict, the administration maintains that its military campaign has achieved its objectives. However, the reality on the ground—including attacks on Gulf states, continued fighting in Lebanon, and a severe energy crisis—suggests that a lasting peace remains elusive. The economic and human costs continue to mount, and the global community faces a protracted period of instability regardless of any near-term diplomatic breakthroughs.

| Radio Free Europe | Secretary of State Rubio insists the conflict is over. |
| Taipei Times | Kuwait airport was attacked by Iranian drones after Rubio's statement. |
| Al Jazeera English | Israel continued drone strikes in Lebanon after a ceasefire was agreed. |
- Most outlets gloss over the role of Israel as a co-belligerent; only Al Jazeera and DW English mention Israeli operations in Lebanon.
- No article provides detailed casualty figures for the entire conflict across all fronts.
- The potential humanitarian crisis inside Iran (beyond economic strains) is largely absent from these reports.
The coverage reveals a conflict that is both military and political, with the US Congress sending a strong signal of discontent but lacking leverage to stop the fighting. The economic consequences are severe and lasting, yet diplomatic channels remain open but unproductive. The discrepancy between Trump's optimism and Iran's pessimism highlights a fundamental disconnect that complicates any resolution. Meanwhile, the attacks on Kuwait and continued violence in Lebanon show that the conflict extends beyond a US-Iran bilateral issue to encompass the broader Middle East.
