WRAPUP 4-US, Iran no closer to ending war as Qatari tanker sails toward Strait of Hormuz

Efforts to end the war between Iran and the United States saw a Qatari LNG tanker sailing toward the Strait of Hormuz, providing a temporary period of calm. Despite U.S. urging for a response from Iran, no significant movement has occurred yet, with continued attacks on surrounding countries like the UAE. The U.S. is also intensifying sanctions to curb Iran's weapons development, amid rising tensions ahead of President Trump's visit to China.
