Je viens de réunir les dirigeants du G7 pour évoquer la situation énergétique mondiale.
Nous sommes d’accord pour travailler de manière coordonnée pour contribuer à la baisse des prix des produits pétroliers, notamment du diesel.
Nous avons décidé de :
→ flexibiliser la production pour produire au maximum de nos capacités de nos raffineries,
→ libérer nos réserves stratégiques jusqu’à 100 millions de barils, sous 4 mois, avec nos partenaires, sous la coordination de l’Agence internationale de l’énergie,
→ ne prendre aucune mesure de restriction des échanges de produits énergétiques et pétroliers entre pays partenaires.

President Emmanuel Macron said France would send troops to defend the oil port of Yanbu in Saudi Arabia as the Iran-backed Houthi militia took responsibility for new attacks on the kingdom.
“We are going to send military assets: soldiers, radar systems and defense systems.”

Today at 12 p.m. ET, U.S. forces began striking Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targets in Iran. The strikes follow recent attempted attacks by the IRGC against commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and against American service members deployed to the region.

✴️Why LNG? I thought LNG carriers were a red line—until they got hit.
✴️A Greek tanker loaded with Qatari LNG crossed the Strait of Hormuz overnight with its AIS turned on… and was struck (where the red circle is).
✴️Two days earlier, another Qatari LNG tanker approached Port Qasim to deliver cargo to Pakistan, then suddenly made a U-turn for unknown reasons.

🔴The LNG war is real. Just days ago, two LNG regasification ships were hit by drones at the Damietta LNG terminal in Egypt.
🔴What? Why?
🔴This is a highly celebrated event: Qatar sent the first LNG tanker through the Strait of Hormuz after a three-week halt. Pakistan negotiated a deal with Iran to allow it to pass, and it did. However, as it approached Pakistan in the Gulf of Oman, it made a U-turn.
🔴If you know the reason, please let me know.

🚨 A drone strike at Egypt’s Damietta Port hit two LNG vessels—the Energos Winter FSRU and the Gaslog Salem.
This isn't just another tactical event; it marks an epoch-making expansion of hybrid energy warfare in the Middle East. 🧵🇪🇬🇺🇸🇾🇪🇸🇦🇮🇱👇

Saudi Ships Shun Red Sea Chokepoint for Rare Africa Journey
Six Saudi oil tankers are sailing away from the Bab el-Mandeb chokepoint and appeared to be embarking on an unusual trip around Africa as threats from Houthi rebels upend shipping in the Red Sea.
Two empty very large crude carriers, Hazm and Dilam, are signaling Gibraltar, which is a major hub in the Mediterranean Sea for refueling, according to ship-tracking data. The other tankers, Ghinah, Laynah, Salam and Burqan, are indicating South Africa’s Durban or Algoa Bay, ports that are often listed as a waypoint for vessels making cross-continental journeys.
Saudi Arabia has been diverting some Asia-bound crude flows from its Red Sea export port of Yanbu to Egypt’s Sidi Kerir on the Mediterranean coast, where the kingdom is exploring a new pricing mechanism for buyers to collect oil. Bypassing the shorter route through Bab el-Mandeb for a safer trip around Africa will likely add at least two weeks to the tankers’ journey. (Bloomberg)

2 militaires américains tués, un disparu et 4 blessés en Jordanie après une attaque iranienne. Les frappes calibrées de cette nouvelle phase de la guerre ne le sont plus et la guerre entre dans une nouvelle dimension ce soir. Comment Trump va justifier à son électorat que des militaires meurent à cause de la république islamique?
Middle East retweeted
When I read the US-Iran memorandum, I literally gasped with surprise.
To Trump, the words on the Strait of Hormuz meant Iran was opening it. To the Iranians, they meant they were in charge of it.
Those words were their victory and future leverage…a heavy price will be paid for years to come.

CENTCOM:
The Strait of Hormuz is open to all vessels seeking to lawfully transit the international waterway. U.S. forces are positioned and prepared to ensure that freedom of navigation remains available despite unwarranted Iranian aggression, harassment, threats, and arbitrary declarations. Iran does not control the strait. Traffic is flowing.

La mauvaise gestion de nos finances publiques, dont tous les partis politiques porte la responsabilité depuis 1974, a atteint une telle gravité qu’elle affaiblit sensiblement notre politique étrangère et notre défense à un moment où se décident les nouveaux rapports de force.

At 7:15 p.m. ET today, U.S. Central Command forces began launching the third round of strikes this week against Iran after Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces blatantly attacked M/V GFS Galaxy, a Cyprus-flagged container ship transiting the Strait of Hormuz. A civilian crew member is missing and the vessel is unable to continue the journey due to an onboard fire and significant engineroom damage.
Iran was provided yet another opportunity to demonstrate adherence to the Memorandum of Understanding after being held accountable for earlier attacks on commercial vessels but has again failed.
In response, the United States is imposing a heavy cost by continuing to degrade Iran’s ability to attack civilian mariners and commercial ships freely transiting the strait. The strikes are being carried out at the direction of the Commander in Chief.

À voir absolument. Les journalistes détaillent notamment quels scientifiques iraniens ont été assassinés et combien cela a fait de "dommages collatéraux" comme les nomment les Israéliens.
