The fragile ceasefire between Iran and the U.S. was tested again as a cargo ship caught fire after being hit by an unknown projectile off Qatar’s coast, and Kuwait reported a drone attack. The U.S. is awaiting Iran’s response to a new deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and roll back its nuclear program, amid ongoing tensions and attacks. The fate of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile remains a key sticking point in negotiations, with the IAEA reporting Iran possesses over 440 kilograms of uranium enriched to 60% purity.
