The U.S., Iran, and Oman are reportedly nearing an interim agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, with the Trump administration aiming to announce a deal as soon as Wednesday, according to Axios.
The reported framework would establish a 60 day arrangement under which inbound commercial shipping would transit through Iranian waters, outbound traffic would use Omani waters in coordination with Iran, no transit fees would be charged, and both sides would work to clear naval mines from the strait's median shipping lane before negotiating a permanent agreement.
If finalized, the deal would mark a significant shift from pre-war arrangements by giving Iran a formal role in managing commercial traffic through the world's most important oil chokepoint. It would also likely preserve the ceasefire, reopen the door to broader U.S.-Iran negotiations, and avert the large scale U.S. military strikes President Trump has repeatedly threatened in recent days. According to Axios, the agreement was mediated by Oman with support from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan, while U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff held direct discussions with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in recent days.

Officials with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) are reviewing an air-traffic safety incident Tuesday over Washington, involving Marine One while it was transporting President Donald J. Trump from the White House to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.
According to people familiar with the matter who spoke to The Washington Post, on Tuesday afternoon, Marine One, a military helicopter used to transport the President, took off from the White House, but air-traffic controllers hadnโt yet halted commercial flights at nearby Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport as required under safety protocols, in place since the deadly midair collision over the Potomac on January 29, 2025.
During the incident, Marine One and a commercial jet taking off from Ronald Reagan didnโt appear to get dangerously close under federal rules and werenโt converging, indicating the incident didnโt amount to a serious close call, according to a Spokesperson with the FAA. โMarine One flights are piloted by some of the best aviators in the world, and at no point was the President in harmโs way,โ said White House Spokesman Kush Desai.

The Houthis have announced that they targeted the Saudi oil tanker Wafa with an undisclosed number of missiles in the northern Red Sea off the coast of Yanbu, marking the 8th Saudi Arabian oil tanker targeted and the total number of Saudi tankers diverted since July 22 to 29.
The statement is significant because it explicitly expands the Houthis' targeting to include Saudi tankers operating in the northern Red Sea, representing a notable geographic escalation beyond the Bab al Mandeb and southern Red Sea.

German authorities are investigating what appears to have been an attempted explosive drone attack at Leipzig/Halle Airport after a drone carrying an explosive device was discovered near Ukrainian cargo aircraft, according to BILD.
BILD reports the drone was found late Tuesday night on the airport apron with an attached package that security authorities identified as containing explosive material after a positive nitrate test. An X-ray reportedly revealed a detonator, but investigators believe it malfunctioned, preventing the device from detonating. The explosive package has been preserved for forensic examination rather than destroyed, and BILD reports NATO investigators are expected to participate in the investigation.
The incident occurred near several Ukrainian Antonov cargo aircraft at one of Europe's most important cargo hubs, including shipments supporting Ukraine. Airport operations were temporarily suspended following the discovery.
BILD also reports that shortly after the airport was closed, a DHL cargo aircraft aborted its landing and later struck an unidentified object approximately 400 meters above the ground and about six kilometers from the airport. The aircraft landed safely in Hanover, where damage to its nose section was discovered. German authorities have confirmed the collision occurred and are investigating it as a state security matter, though they have not publicly confirmed that the object was a drone or linked it to the explosive device.

Six months after the deadliest U.S. loss of the Iran War, Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) is demanding the Pentagon publicly release its investigation into the March 1 Iranian attack in Kuwait that killed six U.S. service members.
In a letter obtained by CBS News, Baldwin called on U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) to provide Congress with the full 350+ page report, supporting documentation, and any classified reviews. She is also seeking answers about reported delays in medical care and force protection decisions before the attack.
The push follows earlier CBS News reporting that survivors alleged intelligence warnings were ignored, the unit was not adequately fortified, and requests for additional medical supplies were denied. The Pentagon has completed its investigation and briefed families of the fallen, but has not yet publicly released its findings or assigned responsibility for any command decisions.
At the same time, the Pentagon is likely weighing transparency against operational security. A public release could expose vulnerabilities in force protection, intelligence collection, medical response, or command procedures that Iran could study and exploit. Similar investigations are often released only in redacted form or classified versions for that reason.

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has released an image of a U.S. Air Force F-16 "Fighting Falcon" receiving fuel from a U.S. Air Force KC-135 "Stratotanker" assigned to the 912th Air Refueling Squadron at March Air Reserve Base, California, during recent operations in the CENTCOM area of responsibility supporting the U.S. naval blockade of Iran.
According to CENTCOM's latest operational update, U.S. forces have now voluntarily redirected 48 commercial vessels, boarded two vessels to ensure compliance, and disabled two non-compliant vessels since the blockade was established.

The Houthis have claimed responsibility for targeting the Saudi oil tanker Daisy in the Gulf of Aden with a ballistic missile, alleging the vessel was struck and forced to reverse course, according to the group's military spokesman.
The reported location of the attack loosely coincides with the area of an earlier United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) advisory, in which the master of a tanker reported hearing a loud explosion in close proximity to the vessel. UKMTO stated that all crew members were safe and accounted for, with no reported damage or environmental pollution.

President Trump reportedly confronted Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth at Camp David over worsening U.S. missile shortages, questioning why he believed the problem had already been resolved.
According to The Washington Post, the discussion focused on dwindling stocks of long-range precision munitions and air-defense interceptors that have increasingly constrained U.S. military options against Iran. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt forcefully denied the report, calling it "100% fake news" and insisting it "literally never happened," adding that President Trump has the "utmost confidence" in Hegseth.
