IEA TO ACCELERATE OIL RESERVE RELEASES AS DIESEL SUPPLY TIGHTENS

The International Energy Agency warns that global oil markets remain tight, particularly for diesel, amid the Strait of Hormuz crisis.

330 million barrels of emergency reserves have already been released, with approximately 100 million barrels remaining.

The IEA plans to accelerate releases, including more than 20 million barrels of diesel as soon as possible.

Total releases are now expected to exceed the original 400-million-barrel commitment, as member countries seek to stabilize energy markets.

U.S. CONSIDERS USING “MOTHER OF ALL BOMBS” AGAINST IRAN

The Pentagon has reportedly developed new strike plans targeting Iranian energy infrastructure and nuclear facilities, potentially involving the GBU-43/B MOAB, America's largest non-nuclear bomb.

According to CNN, the plans could be considered before or after the U.S. midterm elections, if President Trump authorizes renewed military operations.

However, officials reportedly question whether the weapon could destroy deeply buried Iranian nuclear facilities, while warning of significant civilian casualty risks.

No strike has been authorized or announced. The White House says Trump is keeping all options available.
