This handout satellite image taken by 2026 Planet Labs PBC on Monday shows smoke billowing following an explosion from the port of Bandar Abbas along the Strait of Hormuz.—AFP KARACHI: Escalating military conflict in the Middle East and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz have forced global shipping companies to adopt precautionary measures for the movement of goods by sea as well as for their staff and crew, while some firms have indicated the imposition of war-risk and contingency surcharges on cargo. The Strait of Hormuz is a strategic maritime corridor through which nearly 25 per cent of the world’s oil passes. Any disruption to traffic through the narrow passage linking the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman could lead to increases in crude oil and LNG prices as well as higher shipping insurance costs. “Given that a large proportion of Pakistan’s trade transits through the Gulf region and the fact that most major shipping lines have already announced service disruptions, Pakistan’s trade will suffer dela...

• Says invasion will ‘hardly last longer than a month’, refuses to rule out ‘boots on ground’ • Claims potential successors to Khamenei identified by Washington have also perished • Larijani insists country prepared for long war; Tehran says over 500 targets hit, more than 550 Iranians killed in strikes • Top US general claims air superiority over Iran; says more losses expected after six soldiers killed, three planes downed WASHINGTON: Anyone trying to keep track of US President Donald Trump’s comments is bound to be confused by his constantly shifting stance on the invasion of Iran.

By 5.30pm,...

• Shehbaz lauds Oman efforts for Iran-US deal, rues attack derailed peace process • Premier speaks to Kuwaiti crown prince, opposes escalatory actions; receives call from Syrian president ISLAMABAD: As war continued to rage in the Gulf on Monday, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif spoke to the rulers of Oman, Kuwait, and Syria to advocate diplomatic routes to restore peace in the region following the US-Israel strikes on Iran. In a conversation with Oman’s Sultan Haitham bin Tariq, the PM discussed the prevailing regional situation in the wake of the attack on Iran and subsequent hostilities that had endangered the peace and security of the entire Gulf region. The PM said the escalation had taken place at a time when diplomatic efforts facilitated by Oman were underway to reduce the US-Iran tensions, according to a statement from his office. “The attacks had not only derailed the delicate diplomatic process, but had also undermined efforts to promote dialogue and de-escalation in the region,” he was quoted as sayi...
