Iran Names Blockade Relief as Precondition as Washington Opens Lebanon Round Two Under Fire
A truce that has lost its clock has gained a list of preconditions — and a second table opens at State under Hezbollah fire while thirty navies write the Hormuz plan.
Reuters and Bloomberg describe a ceasefire extension with stalled diplomacy; AP covers the Strait of Hormuz ship attacks as a separate kinetic story.
X reads the extension as empty procedure — Tehran will not negotiate under blockade, Hezbollah will not stop firing, and the thirty-nation coalition is a parallel war stack.
