On day 25 of the West Asia war, Israeli forces launched airstrikes on Tehran, causing power outages across the Iranian capital. While US President Donald Trump announced a five-day pause, Iran rejected claims of negotiations and appointed Brigadier Mohammed Reza Ghadir as the new security chief. The United States is increasing its military presence with the 82nd Airborne and marine amphibious groups. Iran reported shooting down a US drone and continued missile strikes on Israel. Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed Parliament, comparing the conflict to the COVID-19 pandemic and warning of a prolonged crisis. He announced a six-month preparedness pipeline and the formation of an inter-ministerial committee with seven empowered groups. Lebanon declared Iran’s envoy persona non grata, citing IRGC involvement with Hezbollah. Economically, India’s crude basket reached 157 dollars per barrel, though the Nifty rose 2 per cent following reports of a potential military pause. Back-channel diplomacy continues through Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and India, focusing on the Strait of Hormuz.
