US-Iran Ceasefire Ends Amid Assassination Plot Warnings

Tensions between the United States and Iran have escalated significantly following the declared end of a ceasefire between the two nations.

As Iran held funeral rites for its late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Israel reportedly warned the U.S. of an Iranian plot to assassinate President Trump.

President Trump stated he has given instructions for an "unprecedented" military response against Iran should he be assassinated.

Meanwhile, regional actors like Qatar and Pakistan have urged both the U.S. and Iran to exercise restraint and continue diplomatic talks.

This renewed hostility has already impacted global energy markets, leading to a decrease in shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz and a rise in oil prices.

The focus now shifts to whether diplomatic efforts can resume to de-escalate the situation.
