🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — Trump cornered as ceasefire collapses, with analysts warning escalation won't break Iran, Reuters reports.

With the interim ceasefire dead and unable to pull the US out of the unpopular war he started, Trump finds himself in a bind as he tries to break Iran's grip on the Strait of Hormuz and force a defiant Tehran to submit.

Signaling growing frustration, Trump has floated expanding the target list — strikes on energy plants and bridges, sending ground forces to seize Iran's Kharg Island oil hub, and bombing the deep-underground nuclear-linked site known as Pickaxe Mountain.

But analysts widely agree that any major escalation short of a full ground invasion — which would be politically impossible — has little chance of forcing Iran's hand now, having already failed in earlier phases of the war.

"There's no reason to believe that this latest set of attacks or whatever the president has in mind will compel the Iranians to change their thinking," said Jonathan Panikoff, former deputy US intelligence officer for the Middle East, now at the Atlantic Council. "It's perhaps more likely to harden their position."

🇺🇸🇸🇩⚡️ — A Reuters investigation has linked companies controlled by former US special forces soldier Steven Shaulis to aircraft supplying Rapid Support Forces (RSF) logistics hubs in Sudan.

➡️ At least three Boeing aircraft operated by Shaulis-controlled companies flew from Chad to RSF-linked hubs in Libya, Somalia, and Sudan — including Nyala and Kufra, both critical RSF supply routes.

➡️ A Boeing 737 linked to Shaulis was shot down during Sudanese military airstrikes on Nyala in May 2025, killing 54 people — including 51 RSF fighters.

➡️ Key details remain unknown, including the source of funding for the flights and what cargo they carried — and Reuters found no evidence Shaulis or his companies have been sanctioned or formally charged.
