INGLEWOOD, California, June 15 (Reuters) – Iran kicked off their World Cup in Los Angeles on Monday, drawing 2-2 with New Zealand in front of a crowd that consisted of both fans cheering them on and Iranian Americans waving symbols of protest against the Tehran government.

The run-up to the match had been one of extraordinary drama off the pitch, with the team playing on U.S. soil barely 24 hours after a peace deal was announced to end the war that began when the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran in February.

The footballers had flown into the U.S. on Sunday from their training base in Tijuana, Mexico.

In Los Angeles – home to the biggest Iranian community outside Iran, many of whom fled the country after the Islamic Revolution – Iranian American soccer fans said they had been left torn between excitement at seeing the team on the world‘s biggest stage, anger at Tehran’s crackdown on protesters and concern about Washington’s bombing campaign.

Though most Iran fans at the stadium passionately backed their team, many signalled opposition to the government in Tehran by holding up pre-revolutionary flags – the lion‑and‑sun emblem used before 1979 and now a symbol of protest. Some went further, cheering New Zealand or booing their own side, which some Iranian Americans view as a proxy for Tehran.

Outside the stadium, several hundred held a protest, waving anti-Iranian government signs and flags.

DUBAI, June 16 (Reuters) – Iran executed two indiv

DUBAI, June 16 (Reuters) – Iran executed two individuals described as “armed leaders of early 2026 unrest” in the county of Shahrud, the judiciary’s news outlet Mizan said on Tuesday, identifying the defendants as Javad Zamani and Abolfazl Saedi. The two men were convicted of Moharebeh (waging war against God), corruption on earth, damaging public and private property, and crimes against national security.

DUBAI, June 16 (Reuters) – The United States military has overseen scores of secretive ship-to-ship oil transfers to keep [Persian] Gulf energy exports flowing, using aerial and water drones as well as helicopters in an operation to guide convoys to awaiting tankers.

The operation on the edge of the Strait of Hormuz employs a shuttling techniquelong used by Iran to skirt sanctions. Two specific locations where the oil transfers take place were identified by 11 people familiar with the operation – one off the coast of Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates and the other off Oman’s port of Sohar. It started in early May, and at least 92 ships have been involved in the transfers, according to shipping data and satellite imagery reviewed by Reuters. As recently as June 11,17 pairs of ships could be seen carrying out simultaneous oil transfers at the two sites, according to satellite images reviewed by Reuters.

An Apache helicopter downed by Iran on June 9, sparking retaliatory bombings by the U.S., was involved in the mission, according to four sources, including a former U.S. official with knowledge of the attack. Using satellite imagery, Reuters counted six pairs of tanker ships clustered together in a small area off the port of Sohar the day the Apache was shot down.

Reuters could not confirm what role the Apache played in the operation. In response to Reuters questions, a U.S. defense official said no Central Command forces are taking part in an offshore ship-to-ship oil transfer operation. Both crew members were rescued by a drone boat, U.S. officials said.

TOKYO/DETROIT, June 16 (Reuters) – Tokyo auto shops and Detroit car dealerships have been running short of motor oil, paint and other products for months since the Middle East conflict snarled global supply chains.

Now, while a potential deal between the U.S. and Iran may bring an end to the fighting, industry experts and executives say it is unlikely to deliver immediate relief to the smaller shops that have been squeezed by Tehran’s shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz. Closure of the strait has blocked almost a fifth of global oil flows and led to bottlenecks for some petroleum-derived products.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday a preliminary agreement to end the war has been signed both countries although details remain unclear and it may take some time for shipments through the strait to return to normal.

Hiroyuki Nakamura has already spent the last few months trying to ride out a shortage of motor oil, the first he’s ever seen in 35 years repairing cars.

“Oil supplies were almost completely wiped out after the war started in March. Since April, nothing has been coming in,” said Nakamura, a director at Shin Etsu Denso, a Tokyo-based auto-repair company.

Business has also been hit by a shortage of paint thinner and diesel exhaust fluid, he said. Nakamura, like other mechanics, executives and officials interviewed for this report, spoke to Reuters before the announcement of the proposed deal between Washington and Tehran.

June 16 (Reuters) – Shipowners will not resume tra

June 16 (Reuters) – Shipowners will not resume transit through the Strait of Hormuz for weeks until they are confident that the U.S.-Iran peace deal is “material”, the CEO of Japan’s Mitsui O.S.K. Lines 9104.T told the Financial Times in an interview published on Tuesday.

The war, which began in late February, has largely halted shipping through the key route for around a fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas supply, along with products such as aluminum and urea.

“Given the experiences in the last couple of months, I think it’s reasonable to assume that it may take at least a couple of weeks or if not a month,” Jotaro Tamura told FT, before U.S. President Donald Trump announced a deal to end the war in Iran.

The agreement between Washington and Tehran has not changed Tamura’s view, the FT report said.

“We recognize that there are signs of movement toward a ceasefire. However, operations will not be resumed until safety has been sufficiently confirmed,” Mitsui O.S.K. said in an emailed statement to Reuters.

“The resumption of transit will require close coordination with the governments of the relevant countries, insurers, and other stakeholders,” the Japanese shipping giant added.

Mitsui O.S.K., one of Japan’s three biggest shipping firms, has a fleet of more than 900 vessels, including bulk carriers, tankers and ferries.

Trump in a Truth Social post on Monday said that ships loaded with oil are starting to move out of the strait, “going along the Southern ‘Highway,’ which is totally safe, secure, and pristine”.

EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France/DUBAI/JERUSALEM, June 16 (Reuters) – Doubts swirled around the U.S.-Iran interim deal to end the war in the Middle East as shippers said it could take weeks for confidence to return after any reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and fundamental questions remained unanswered.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday a preliminary agreement to end the conflict had been signed by the U.S. and Iran, although details have yet to be made public and both countries said a permanent truce was yet to be negotiated.

The interim agreement would extend a tenuous ceasefire announced in April by another 60 days and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has effectively blocked since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran in February.

Negotiators would address difficult issues like the future of Iran‘s nuclear programme during the next phase of talks to be held during the 60-day window.

Two other issues that Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used to justify the war – ending Iran‘s support for regional armed proxies and curbing its missile programme – are not thought to be on the agenda for those negotiations.

“The deal’s all signed,” Trump said after he arrived in France for a summit of the G7 group of big economies. He said Vice President JD Vance would attend a formal signing ceremony in Geneva on Friday.
