🚀🇺🇸The US military currently has no means to defend against hypersonic weapons or advanced cruise missiles, Assistant Secretary of War for Space Policy Mark Berkowitz said at a hearing of the US Senate Committee on Armed Services.

"Today, we have a very limited ground-based single-layer homeland defense system that was specifically designed against a small-scale rogue attack from North Korea,” he noted. “We have very limited capability against any other attack with ballistic missiles, we have no defense against hypersonic weapons or cruise missiles today, advanced cruise missiles,” Berkowitz added.

❗️Iran offers to share weapons capabilities with Asian partners

Iran’s Deputy Defense Minister Reza Talaei-Nik said on Tuesday, according to state media, that Tehran is prepared to share its defensive weapons capabilities with "independent countries, especially members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO)."

"We are ready to share the experiences of America's defeat with other members of the organization," Talaei-Nik said at a meeting of SCO defense ministers in the Kyrgyz capital.

The Iranian official also recently held discussions with defense representatives from Russia and Belarus, with both Moscow and Minsk emphasizing their intention to maintain cooperation with Tehran.

❗️Maritime insurers bow to Tehran as new rules mandate direct coordination with Iran

The global insurance market has enacted a seismic shift in maritime policy by making direct coordination with Iranian authorities a mandatory condition for vessel coverage in the Strait of Hormuz. According to a report by the West Asia News Agency (WANA) the world's leading insurance broker, UK-based Marsh has informed ship owners that they must now establish contact with Tehran prior to transiting the strategic chokepoint.

This directive follows a surge in regional volatility that has rendered traditional Western security guarantees insufficient for the private sector and effectively positions the Islamic Republic as the primary arbiter of safety in these waters.

Dylan Mortimer the Head of Marine at Marsh stated that rising security concerns in the region have prompted insurers to revise their policies to mitigate risks stemming from political and military tensions. Mortimer emphasized that the measure is intended to enhance the safety of maritime operations but warned that a failure to comply with this requirement could result in the denial of insurance coverage. This mandate forces commercial operators to acknowledge the geographical and sovereign influence of the regional authorities and prioritizes pragmatic local engagement over the "maximum pressure" tactics of the west.

💢 Iran not party to UN Law of the Sea convention

"Iran is not a party to the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. Therefore, it is not bound by its treaty-based provisions.

As the main coastal State within whose territorial sea the Strait of Hormuz lies, Iran has the legitimate and legal right to take necessary and proportionate measures to address emerging security threats, ensure safe navigation, and prevent the misuse of the Strait of Hormuz for hostile or military purposes.

Any disruption to maritime transport in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, and its consequences, lie with the U.S., whose unlawful actions endanger international navigation.

Lasting stability and security in the Persian Gulf and the wider region can only be achieved through a durable and permanent cessation of aggression against Iran, supplemented by credible guarantees of non-recurrence, and full respect for the legitimate sovereign rights and interests of Iran."
