Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.
On today's podcast:
(1) President Donald Trump said that Iran “gave” the US most of the 15 demands it issued to Tehran to end the war, even as it remains unclear whether either side is negotiating.
(2) Attacks in the Middle East conflict extended into a fifth week Sunday, with Israel striking Tehran and Saudi Arabia intercepting almost a dozen drones, a day after Yemen-based Houthi militants entered the war.
(3) Oil advanced as Iran-backed Houthi militants in Yemen entered the Middle East war and more US troops arrived in the region, raising fears the widening conflict will cause further chaos for energy markets.
(4) UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves will urge Group of Seven partners to boost domestic energy supplies and warn the recent surge in oil and gas prices is playing into Vladimir Putin’s hands.
(5) French authorities detained two new suspects in connection with a foiled bombing near the Bank of America office in Paris, which officials have said is likely linked to the conflict in the Middle East.
(6) Once a global hub for entry-level jobs, London is now the epicenter of a growing youth joblessness crisis that is threatening to blight the futures of hundreds of thousands of people and fuel a backlash against Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s Labour government in key municipal elections in just over a month.
