US-Iran Brinkmanship: Trump says he paused a planned strike on Iran after appeals from Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, but warns a “big hit” could return in “two to three days” if no deal is reached—while Iran insists it won’t “surrender” and is pushing its own proposal via Pakistan. Sanctions Push: The US Treasury expands “Economic Fury” with new OFAC listings, targeting an Iranian foreign-currency exchange house (Amin Exchange) and front companies, plus 19 vessels tied to Iran’s shadow oil flows. UAE Under Pressure: The UAE says its air defences intercepted six hostile drones in 48 hours and that drones targeting Barakah came from Iraq; analysts note the war is testing the Emirates’ safe-haven image. Energy Logistics: With Hormuz risk still hanging over markets, the UAE’s push for bypass pipelines and export capacity remains a key business story. Travel & Trade: Etihad ramps up A380 flights to Paris, while Ajman boosts German tourism ties ahead of IMEX Frankfurt.
