After three days of national mourning, Mali has buried its defence minister. The funeral was attended by top military figures, including the transitional president. It was a moment of grief but also defiance as the military government faces growing attacks from al Qaeda-linked fighters and Tuareg separatist rebels.

In this episode of This Is America, hosted by Cyril Vanier, Al Jazeera examines the business of war in the US–Israel war on Iran – and asks which US companies stand to benefit as military spending and energy prices surge.
From Huntsville, Alabama – America’s “rocket city” – Richard Gaisford shows how a town that once helped NASA reach the Moon has become a powerhouse of the US defence industrial base. As global conflicts rage and weapons spending increases, billions of dollars from major contractors have been invested in Huntsville. Technology developed here is now playing a key role in the conflict in the Middle East, bringing highly paid jobs and fuelling a real-estate boom. But city planners warn against over-reliance on these “war dividends”, even as the US defence secretary pushes for a 40% increase in military spending.
In Washington, DC, Cyril notes that while no one has clearly won or lost on the battlefield in the US war on Iran, the picture is very different financially. Some sectors have already won big: the US defence industry and American oil and gas – while American consumers are paying higher prices.
On Capitol Hill, Manuel Rapalo follows lawmakers as they consider a record jump in military spending, including a proposed $1.5 trillion defence budget and extra funds to sustain the war. He examines how much of that money will flow to private defence contractors, and the calls in Congress for tighter oversight.
In the studio, Rosiland Jordan – who has covered the Pentagon, State Department and White House under multiple US presidents – explains how the war on Iran is reshaping the global energy market. The US has become a net exporter of crude oil for the first time since World War II, while Europe and Asia have grown increasingly dependent on crude from the Americas since the conflict began. The US–Israel war on Iran has helped trigger a major disruption to global energy supplies, with the S&P 500 energy sector heavily outperforming the broader market. At the same time, weapons manufacturers were already enjoying record revenues from Gaza and Ukraine before Iran, and are now benefiting from the need to replenish missiles, interceptors and other systems.
Alex Baird breaks down the numbers, showing how energy giants and defence companies have seen profits and share prices soar since the war started – from oil and LNG exporters plugging the gap left by Gulf disruptions, to defence firms reporting double‑digit jumps in earnings.
In the studio discussion, Cyril is joined by Dan Grazier, Senior Fellow and Director of the National Security Reform Program at the Stimson Center, and Paolo von Schirach, President of the Global Policy Institute, who debate whether the expansion of the defence and energy industries has helped create a permanent war economy in the United States – one in which high defence budgets, sprawling contractor networks and intensive lobbying risk blurring the line between legitimate security needs and the economic interests that gain from continued conflict.
This Is America asks: as defence firms, energy producers and financial markets profit from the war on Iran, can US leaders truly separate war and peace decisions from the powerful business interests that stand to gain – or has the business of war become too embedded in the American economy to unwind?

Donald Trump is asked in the Oval Office whether talks with Iran have stalled and whether he would consider restarting the war, and the US president responds:
“I don’t know what stubborn is because, really, nobody knows what the talks are except myself and a couple of other people. They [Iranians] want to make a deal badly.”
“We have a problem because nobody knows for sure who the leaders are.”
“I don’t know that we need it [to restart war] … We might need it.”
Trump says “probably” on whether he will withdraw US troops from Italy and Spain.

Donald Trump has again posted on social media criticising Germany and its chancellor, Friedrich Merz.
He told him to spend more time fixing his broken country and less “interfering with those that are getting rid of the Iran nuclear threat.”
On Monday Merz said Iran was humiliating the US in the ongoing conflict.
The chancellor has spoken again since then but before the most recent post from President Trump, stressing how much he values the transatlantic partnership.

After a year in Israeli detention without trial or charge, Palestinian journalist Ali al-Samoudi has been released.
The Palestinian Prisoners' Society says Samoudi faced a systematic starvation policy at the prison.
It also says he faced abuse and torture under Israeli detention.
Samoudi was one of the journalists working with Al Jazeera's Shireen Abu Akleh when she was fatally shot in the head by an Israeli sniper in 2022.

The Strait of Hormuz is not just an energy chokepoint but also a critical transit hub for pharmaceuticals.
And its effective closure is also blocking the movement of medicines around the world.

Explosions rocked Mali's capital on April 25 as rebels carried out coordinated attacks across the country. Mali’s defence minister was killed along with his wife and children when an attacker struck their home. With Bamako under siege and the military leadership briefly disappearing from view, who is really behind the violence in Mali?

Tom Fletcher, the UN undersecretary-general for humanitarian affairs, has warned during a visit to Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu, that the US-Israel war on Iran is already hitting the country hard.
“I’ve been in Somalia for almost a week now, and I’m hearing every day, every hour, the impact of this crisis,” Fletcher told Al Jazeera.
“Remember that Somalia was already facing enormous needs … and now with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, you have a doubling of food prices, a doubling of fuel prices,” Fletcher added.
“The result, I’m afraid, is that the danger of famine is looming once again in this region. You’ve got half a million kids in severe acute malnutrition. You got a doubling in hunger past six months. So, we need the world to wake up to the crisis here.”

In an Al Jazeera panel discussion, analysts examined the deepening standoff between Iran and the United States.
Abbas Aslani, Senior Research Fellow at the Center for Middle East and Strategic Studies, said talks remain deadlocked, with no promising signals from Washington.
He explained Iran’s three-stage proposal seeks to separate nuclear issues from reopening the Strait of Hormuz, prioritising immediate regional concerns.
Aslani warned military escalation is now as likely as a diplomatic breakthrough, amid increased US military posture.
Mohamad ElMasri, Professor at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, said neither side wants war or a prolonged stalemate, raising the risk of renewed conflict.
He added Israel is pushing for escalation, seeking regime change or weakening Iran and lobbying the US to return to war.
Both said any future conflict would differ from previous wars, with wider regional and energy implications.

Iran's Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, issued a defiant written statement on 'National Persian Gulf Day,' declaring that the future of the region will be "without America" and that the United States has no place in the Gulf except "at the bottom of its waters." He said a "new chapter" is taking shape for the Strait of Hormuz, with Iran controlling its management. Khamenei also vowed that 90 million Iranians would use all capabilities — including nuclear and missile powers — to defend the country. Al Jazeera's Resul Serdar reported from Tehran that Khamenei is also calling on Gulf states to distance themselves from US military presence, which Iran argues creates "vulnerability and fragility." Khamenei has not appeared in public or on video since assuming leadership after his father was killed on the first day of the war.

Representatives from nearly 60 countries have gathered in Colombia for the first global conference dedicated to phasing out fossil fuels. The summit in Santa Marta comes amid growing frustration with stalled UN climate talks and renewed urgency following disruptions to oil supplies through routes like the Strait of Hormuz. Host nations Colombia and the Netherlands say the transition is no longer a question of if, but how, though major polluters including China and the United States were absent. Delegates agreed to continue the process, with the next conference set for Tuvalu.

The United Kingdom has become only the second country in the world to ban the sale of tobacco to anyone born on or after 1 January 2009, aiming to create what the government calls a "smoke free generation".
The legislation also introduces new powers to regulate vaping products, including restrictions on flavours and packaging to reduce their appeal to young people.
Official data shows that more than 78,000 people die from smoking related illnesses in England annually, with the habit costing society over $59 billion each year.
Health campaigners have welcomed the historic ban but say more support is needed for the 5 million people in the UK who currently smoke.

The head of the UN's nuclear watchdog, Rafael Grossi, says much of Iran's uranium stockpile is likely still buried beneath the rubble of a facility bombed by the United States last year.
Speaking at the UN's Nuclear Non-Proliferation Conference, Grossi told Al Jazeera that until IAEA inspectors can verify the site, "we cannot confirm that this is the situation."
He added that the material is "close to weapon grade" and that there is "difficulty in accessing" the area. Iran's ambassador to the UN accused the United States of using the conference to distract from its own treaty violations. With ongoing war on Iran and global tensions, expectations for any international agreement from the conference remain low.

US Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth has appeared before Congress for the first time since the war on Iran began, facing sharp questions from Democrats over the military campaign and its estimated $25bn cost.
Hegseth defended the operation, claiming the president will secure a deal preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, but polls show most Americans do not support the war.
Democrats challenged the strategy's effectiveness and highlighted broader economic costs to American families, which one lawmaker estimated at $631bn.

US officials have defended a military operation targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, claiming they have been “obliterated” and are under constant surveillance. However, questions have been raised in Congress over whether the strikes achieved any strategic success, with critics arguing that Iran’s nuclear ambitions and conventional missile capabilities remain intact.
During a heated exchange on Capitol Hill, lawmakers challenged the Trump administration’s framing of the operation as a success, pointing to ongoing regional tensions, continued Iranian capabilities, and the financial cost of the conflict, which they say has reached billions of dollars.
