U.S. airstrikes on Iran have paused after nearly two weeks of escalating conflict, as diplomacy pushes to avert full-scale war amid President Trump’s contradictory signals. Israel, which initially backed U.S. strikes, has notably stayed out of recent attacks — especially after Iran shut down the Strait of Hormuz, sending oil prices soaring and rattling global markets. With the conflict nearing five months, negotiators are eyeing a ceasefire where Iran would oversee vessel transit with looser restrictions — a compromise both sides now seem willing to pursue, despite divergent visions for control of the vital waterway. Meanwhile, Netanyahu’s upcoming visit to Trump in Washington hints at shifting alliances and strategic recalibrations as the U.S. military continues to enforce its naval blockade, even disabling a ship attempting to breach it.
