00:01Diplomatic efforts to end the war between the United States and Iran appear to have stalled
00:06as Tehran escalates tensions by firing at ships in the Strait of Hormuz
00:10and the U.S. maintains its naval blockade of Iranian ports.
00:14Iran is demanding a complete end to the U.S. blockade for any talks to resume
00:18after the U.S. in recent days intercepted Iranian cargo vessels it said were attempting to evade its siege.
00:25The operation economic fury continues and the effective and successful naval blockade continues as well
00:32of ships and vessels that are moving to and from Iranian ports.

01:17and stressed that Hezbollah is a common enemy that must be defeated.
01:21We made a historic decision to negotiate directly with Lebanon after more than 40 years.
01:29Unfortunately, Lebanon is a failed state, a state that is de facto under Iranian occupation through Hezbollah.
01:40But this also leads to a conclusion.
01:43Hezbollah is common enemy of Israel and Lebanon.
01:47Oil prices continue to rise as uncertainty looms over the war,
01:52with Brent crude again nosing over the $100 a barrel mark on Thursday,
01:57a roughly 40 percent spike compared to pre-war levels.
02:01Pakistan is continuing to engage with both Washington and Tehran
02:05in hopes of getting peace talks back on track
02:07to reach a comprehensive agreement to end the hostilities.
