AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Middle East Energy Shock: US strikes on Iran for a 13th straight night intensified after Houthis attacked two Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea, pushing Brent above $100/bbl and raising fresh fears for global shipping and Gulf supply routes. Kuwait Security Signals: Iran’s army claimed drone attacks on US sites in Kuwait, including Camp Udairi and Doha/Arifjan camps, while Kuwait’s defence ministry said drones hit the Al-Abdali border crossing with Iraq, causing damage but no casualties. US Trade Policy: Trump imposed new 10%–12.5% tariffs on imports from 60 economies over forced-labour enforcement claims, with Kuwait listed at 12.5%—a move set to hit supply chains and consumer prices as temporary levies expire. Energy Route Diversification: Gulf states are accelerating pipeline and alternative export planning to reduce reliance on the Strait of Hormuz as chokepoint risk grows.
