President Trump extends the ceasefire. President Trump extends the ceasefire.
WASHINGTON, April 21 (Reuters) – The United States WASHINGTON, April 21 (Reuters) – The United States imposed new sanctions on Tuesday targeting 14 people and companies that help Iran obtain weapons as Tehran works to rebuild its ballistic missile inventories after U.S.-Israeli attacks, the Treasury Department said.

The targets, which also include aircraft, are based in Iran, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates and were cited for their involvement in procuring or transporting weapons or components on Iran‘s behalf, Treasury said in a statement.

The new sanctions come as Washington and Tehran are at a standoff over whether to begin a second round of talks to reach a deal that would keep the Strait of Hormuz open and bring an end to the U.S.-Israel war on Iran. A two-week ceasefire announced by U.S. President Donald Trump is due to end in the coming days and he has said he is ready to resume military action.

“As the United States continues to deplete Iran’s ballistic missile inventories, the regime is seeking to reconstitute its production capacity,” Treasury said.

“Iran is increasingly relying on Shahed-series one-way attack unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to target the United States and its allies, including energy infrastructure in the region.”

April 21 - U.S. Navy forces have seized a Botswana April 21 - U.S. Navy forces have seized a Botswana-flagged oil tanker in the Indian Ocean, boarding the M/T TIFANI via helicopter. The vessel was blacklisted by the U.S. Treasury for its alleged role in Iran’s shadow fleet operations.
PARIS, April 21 (Reuters) – The conflict between I PARIS, April 21 (Reuters) – The conflict between Iran and the United States and Israel is creating the worst energy crisis ever faced by the world, the head of the International Energy Agency (IEA) said on Tuesday.

“This is indeed the biggest crisis in history,” Birol told France Inter radio in an interview broadcast on Tuesday.

“The crisis is already huge, if you combine the effects of the petrol crisis and the gas crisis with Russia,” he added.

The war in the Middle East has choked up maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, which is a conduit for a fifth of global oil and liquefied natural gas flows.

It has also come on top of the effects of Russia’s war with Ukraine, which had already severed Russian gas supplies to Europe.

Birol had said earlier this month that he viewed the current situation in global energy markets as worse than previous crises in 1973, 1979 and 2022 combined.

In March, the IEA agreed to release a record 400 million barrels of oil from strategic stockpiles to combat rising oil prices caused by the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran.

DUBAI, April 21 (Reuters) – Islamic Republic execu DUBAI, April 21 (Reuters) – Islamic Republic executed a man on Tuesday who was accused of being a leader of a network linked to Israel’s intelligence service and of setting fire to a mosque in Tehran during January protests, the judiciary’s news outlet Mizan reported.

Mizan identified the man as Amirali Mirjafari, saying he had been convicted of carrying out arson at the Qolhak mosque in Tehran and leading anti-security activities.

His death sentence was upheld by the Supreme Court and carried out early on Tuesday, Mizan added.

Iran was rocked by nationwide anti-government protests earlier this year, which were repressed in the biggest crackdown in the Islamic Republic’s history.
WASHINGTON, April 20 (Reuters) – President Donald WASHINGTON, April 20 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump said on Monday he believed a nuclear deal the U.S. is currently negotiating with Iran will be better than a 2015 international agreement to curb Tehran’s nuclear program.

“The DEAL that we are making with Iran will be FAR BETTER than the JCPOA, commonly referred to as ‘The Iran Nuclear Deal’,” Trump wrote in a social media post after concerns expressed by Democrats and some nuclear experts that he is rushing negotiations on a highly complex topic.

During his first White House term, Trump in 2018 withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action agreed to by Iran, the United States and world powers, calling it “the worst deal ever.”

The United States and Israel began attacking Iran more than seven weeks ago in a conflict that Trump has said aims to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.

With a two-week ceasefire set to expire in the coming days, prospects for a second round of talks between the U.S. and Iran in Pakistan were not clear.

“I am under no pressure whatsoever, although, it will all happen, relatively quickly!” Trump added in a Truth Social post.

It is currently unclear what kind of deal could be credibly agreed to by the United States and Iran in a short amount of time. The 2015 agreement, which also involved France, Germany, China, Britain and Russia, took two years to negotiate and involved some 200 specialists spanning nuclear physics, sanctions, finance and law.
