The US has spent decades trying to squeeze Iran economically.
Six weeks into the Middle East conflict, Tehran is still standing.
US and Israeli attacks on infrastructure, industry and trade have damaged Iran's sanctioned economy even further.
But oil revenues have kept flowing, giving the regime a financial cushion.
The Strait of Hormuz is now at the centre of this economic battle; whoever controls it controls the pressure.
At the negotiating table, sanctions relief, billions in frozen assets and war reparations are all at stake.
Meanwhile, millions of Iranians are bearing the brunt of inflation, shortages and a collapsing currency.

Thousands of homes across Gaza remain structurally unsafe despite still standing after the war.
With reconstruction stalled and shelters overcrowded, Palestinian families have little choice but to live in buildings with cracked walls, weakened columns and unstable ceilings.
Civil engineers are conducting basic safety assessments and installing makeshift supports using improvised materials, attempting to make parts of homes temporarily habitable.
Building materials remain blocked from entering the Strip, leaving residents to navigate fragmented living spaces divided between usable rooms and areas too dangerous to occupy.

Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has stalled again despite brief optimism after Iran said it would reopen the route.
Vessels initially moved to transit, but Iranian forces later warned ships to turn back, halting navigation.
Speaking to Al Jazeera, Scott Uehlinger, a retired US Navy officer and former CIA officer, said Iran’s use of small armed speedboats is a “desperate act” with limited military effectiveness.
He said the vessels function as an “insurance threat”, deterring shipping companies and effectively keeping the strait closed.
Uehlinger added the US blockade is highly effective, costing Iran an estimated $160m a day in lost oil revenue.
He said mixed signals between Iran’s foreign ministry and the IRGC may indicate fragmentation within the leadership.
Despite rising costs, he said US operations remain sustainable, though uncertainty persists ahead of ceasefire decisions.

Iran says it is reviewing new proposals from the United States following talks with Pakistan's army chief, General Asim Munir.
Mixed signals continue over the status of the Strait of Hormuz, with the foreign ministry indicating it could reopen while military rhetoric suggests otherwise.
Tehran is using the strategic waterway as leverage in negotiations, linking it to demands including a ceasefire in Lebanon and sanctions relief.
A two-week ceasefire between Iran and the US is due to expire on April 22, raising fears of renewed escalation.
Many Iranians remain anxious about a return to conflict, citing previous strikes during negotiation periods.
Others express cautious hope for a broader deal that could ease sanctions and improve living conditions.
Public sentiment remains mixed, with both concern over war and displays of support for the leadership,

North Korea has carried out another missile launch into its eastern waters, marking its seventh test this year and fourth in just one month. The move violates UN Security Council resolutions, but leader Kim Jong-un says the program is necessary for national defense.
Experts warn that global tensions — including the Iran crisis — are reinforcing Pyongyang’s belief that nuclear weapons ensure regime survival. Neighboring South Korea faces growing risks, with fears that missile barrages could overwhelm defense systems and threaten major cities.
Despite heavy sanctions, analysts say North Korea’s willingness to endure economic hardship limits international leverage, raising concerns about future escalation and regional security.

Pope Leo XIV has arrived in Angola as part of his multi-nation Africa tour, which has already included visits to Algeria and Cameroon.
While the visit focuses on diplomacy, peacebuilding, and interfaith dialogue, the tour has been overshadowed by a growing political dispute with U.S. President Donald Trump over the Middle East conflict.
The comments have added a geopolitical dimension to what was intended as a pastoral and diplomatic journey across Africa.

Hundreds of protesters returned to the streets of Tel Aviv demanding an independent investigation into the Israeli government’s handling of the October 7, 2023 attacks carried out by Hamas.
Demonstrators are calling for a state commission of inquiry, accusing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of avoiding accountability while leading the country through ongoing conflict.
The government has rejected calls for a formal inquiry, citing concerns over judicial bias, further intensifying political tensions in Israel.
Families of victims say they still deserve answers about the failures before and after the attack.

The war may have paused, but tensions in the Strait of Hormuz are far from over.
Iran has reimposed strict controls on shipping, citing the ongoing us blockade of its ports. Despite a fragile ceasefire, both sides continue to exert pressure not through airstrikes, but through control of one of the world’s most critical maritime chokepoints.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is deploying fast attack boats, using swarm tactics to monitor and confront vessels. Reports indicate commercial ships have come under fire, raising fears of escalation.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump insists the blockade will remain until a final deal is reached, even as diplomatic uncertainty continues.
With nearly 20% of global oil passing through this route, the stakes for the global economy remain extremely high.

Tensions between the United States and Iran are escalating again as the Strait of Hormuz turns into a flashpoint.
Iranian forces have reportedly fired at commercial vessels and forced ships to turn back, effectively shutting down one of the world’s most critical energy routes. This comes just hours after Iran had briefly reopened the strait.
Tehran says the move is a response to the ongoing US blockade of Iranian ports — while Donald Trump insists Washington will not be “blackmailed.”

He says contradictions between Washington and Tehran are mostly political messaging, not policy, stressing no real progress toward a deal, deep gaps on uranium enrichment, and that Iran will maintain pressure via the Strait of Hormuz while seeking security guarantees and financial relief.

The world is reckoning with the biggest oil supply disruption in history, one that has sent energy prices soaring, rattled stock markets and exposed the deep vulnerabilities of economies still hooked on fossil fuels. While millions face higher fuel and energy bills, top oil and gas companies are reportedly profiting about $30m per hour since the war began.
This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks with renowned economist Mariana Mazzucato about what a genuine green industrial strategy looks like, why the World Bank has fallen short, and how her concept of the "common good economy" offers a new compass for governments navigating crises.

The Mandelson scandal has resurfaced in the UK and Prime Minister Keir Starmer is in the line of fire again. This time it's because he appointed Peter Mandelson as ambassador to the United States -- even though he failed the government's security clearance. Starmer says he did not know. But the opposition isn't convinced. As the fallout deepens, the calls for him to step down are growing. Mandelson's links to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein have cast a shadow over Starmer's government. So, will the prime minister survive the crisis?

With the ceasefire in effect in Lebanon, thousands of people displaced by Israel's strikes and forced evacuation orders are going back to their homes.
But for many, the return has brought heartbreak rather than relief.
They have found devastation - destroyed homes, buildings and facilities.
The US-brokered truce, which came into effect on Friday, is set to last 10 days and is meant to open the door to more talks.
Israel and Hezbollah have warned residents against going back during the pause in fighting.
On the ground, the truce remains fragile as Israeli forces are still present in parts of the south.

A fragile ceasefire between the US and Iran holds - but the information war intensifies. At the centre: the Strait of Hormuz, where competing US and Iranian narratives have collided.
During any truce, even when the bombs stop falling, the information war goes on. Moments like this test journalism. Because the job is not just to report on the messaging coming from all sides - but to decode and debunk it if necessary.

Palestinian Prisoners' Day is observed every year on April the 17th to highlight the conditions of those held in Israeli jails.
The number of imprisoned Palestinians has doubled since Israel's war on Gaza began in October 2023.
More than 9,600 Palestinians are currently detained in Israel and the occupied West Bank.
The number of administrative detainees, those held without charge or trial, has risen to more than 3,500.
That's up from 1,300 before the war.
The number of children has exceeded 350 with about half of them held without trial or charge.
And since 2023, at least 89 Palestinians have died in Israeli detention, reportedly due to hunger, medical negligence, and torture.
Rights groups say this is part of a wider system of repression.
