Last update: an hour ago

Hormuz & Iran-US deadlock: Iran and the US are again at an impasse as their ceasefire turns shaky, with ships and Gulf states still being targeted and Israel-Hezbollah fighting flaring—while Trump heads to China to press Xi to push Iran toward concessions. Oil shock spillover: The Iran war is draining global inventories at a record pace and battering refining capacity, keeping crude and fuel prices supported even as markets look for any sign of relief. Kuwait security spotlight: Kuwait says it foiled IRGC-linked “hostile acts” tied to Bubiyan Island, arresting four people after a firefight—raising the stakes for regional maritime security. Kuwait business moves: CBK launched its revamped CBK Mobile app, while CBK also issued KD 50m bonds via tawarruq; Action Energy reported Q1 revenue up 69.2% on rig fleet expansion. Trade & logistics: Kuwait Customs rolled out a pre-clearance system for land imports to speed up releases and cut paperwork.
