@Intelslava

🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — NEW: US intelligence agencies have assessed that Iran can now effectively shut down the Strait of Hormuz at will — a powerful new capability acquired as a direct result of the war, three sources tell CNN.

➡️ “We have now handed Iran de facto control over the strait — a weapon more powerful than any nuke,” one source familiar with the assessments tells CNN.

➡️ Iran has also learned it can leverage targeted strikes against Gulf energy infrastructure and potentially deploy Houthi forces to close the Bab-el-Mandeb strait as an economic “nuclear option” if negotiations collapse.

➡️ A senior US official says Iran cannot access any benefits of the framework agreement unless the Strait remains open and Tehran abides by its commitments.

➡️ The assessments underscore the lasting strategic cost of initiating the conflict without fully accounting for Iran’s ability to weaponize the world’s most critical energy chokepoint.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — Critics of the deal with Iran suggest that the US should wage an endless war, "until all the bombs are dropped or all Iranians are killed," Vance stated.

In addition, a former US National Security Advisor during Trump's previous term, John Bolton, expresses an interesting opinion.

He claims that the Iranians manipulated Trump, obtaining everything they needed from the deal, and, moreover, a significant part of it is not disclosed by the Americans because it contains clauses that would greatly affect the geopolitical situation to Washington's detriment.

🛢⚡️ — The world oil market will recover gradually following the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, before tipping into a significant surplus in 2027, the International Energy Agency says in its monthly oil market report.

➡️ The deal could end the supply disruption that shut in over 14 million barrels per day of output — Iranian oil exports can fully resume once the US naval blockade is lifted.

➡️ Strait shipments were already rising in early June, supported by ship-to-ship transfers in the Gulf of Oman, climbing from a May low of 9.6 mb/d to approximately 12 mb/d.

➡️ Full recovery will not be immediate — mines must be cleared from main shipping lanes and supply chains will take time to normalize, the IEA warns.

@InteSlava

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — A senior Israeli official acknowledges "a crisis of trust" with Washington, as the US is refusing to brief Israel on the Iran deal's details over fears Jerusalem will leak its contents and launch a media campaign against it, Channel 13 reports.

➡️ The army is not prepared to carry out such a withdrawal at this time, with frustration and uncertainty prevailing within its ranks as it awaits final instructions from political leaders.

@IntelSlava

🇺🇸🇱🇾⚡️— NEW: Trump adviser Massad Boulos tells the Financial Times the US is working to broker a power-sharing deal between Libya’s rival eastern and western administrations to create “one unified government” while pushing US oil investment.

➡️ The plan would place Saddam Haftar, son of eastern Libya’s warlord, as head of a presidential council, while western PM Dbeibeh remains in his post.

➡️ Boulos says Libyan oil production could double to 3 million barrels per day by end of decade, with ConocoPhillips and Chevron already signing agreements in 2026.

➡️ Analysts are deeply skeptical — calling it “wishful thinking” given deep mistrust between the two sides and the Haftar family’s historical refusal to share power.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
