INDIA NEWS | Sat, 25 Apr 2026, 6:56PM IST ISLAMABAD - U.S. envoys are expected to travel to Pakistan on Saturday in a new bid to salvage ceasefire talks with Tehran, even as Iran's top diplomat arrived in Islamabad and ruled out direct negotiations with U.S. representatives.The latest effort to broker a deal in Islamabad comes as an indefinite ceasefire has paused most fighting, but the economic fallout is still mounting with global energy shipments disrupted by the near closure of the Strait of Hormuz.Follow live updates from the West Asia war.Officials have not specified when President Donald Trump's envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who are expected to lead the U.S. negotiation team, are due to arrive. The White House declined to comment on Saturday.On Saturday, Iran resumed commercial flights from Tehran's international airport for the first time since the conflict with the U.S. and Israel began about two months ago. Flights were scheduled to depart for Istanbul, Oman's capital of Muscat and the Saudi city of Medina, according to Iran's state-run television. Iran partly reopened its airspace earlier this month due to the ceasefire.Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi meanwhile met with the Pakistan military's chief of staff and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. Araghchi wrote on Telegram that they spoke about regional developments, including Iran's red lines for negotiations. Araghchi didn't offer further details, but said Tehran would continue engaging with Pakistan's mediation efforts "until a result is achieved."Also Read | Iran vows 'decisive response' if US continues its 'blockade, piracy, maritime robbery' in GulfPakistan works to get the US and Iran back to the negotiating tableIslamabad, where weeklong security restrictions have disrupted daily life in the capital, was in near-lockdown early Saturday ahead of the expected talks. Residents struggled to commute even short distances due to the now routine checkpoints, road closures and diversions.The usually busy arteries leading to the airport and the heavily fortified Red Zone were largely deserted Saturday, with movement tightly restricted. Security forces - including troops, paramilitary commandos and police - maintained a strong presence at key intersections, especially near the airport, while helicopters circled overhead.Also Read | West Asia War: US says it's hunting for explosive mines in latest push to open Strait of HormuzPakistan has been trying to get U.S. and Iranian officials back to the table since Trump this week announced an indefinite extension of the ceasefire, honoring Islamabad's request for more diplomatic outreach.The White House said Friday that Trump was sending Witkoff and Kushner to meet with Araghchi. But shortly after Iran's top diplomat arrived in Islamabad, his ministry said any talks would be indirect and that Pakistani officials would convey messages between the two sides.Araghchi and Trump's envoys held hours of indirect talks in Geneva on Feb. 27 over Tehran's nuclear program, but walked away without a deal. The next day, Israel and the United States started the war against Iran.White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News on Friday that Witkoff and Kushner and would "hear the Iranians out.""We've certainly seen some progress from the Iranian side in the last couple of days," Leavitt said. She did not offer any details about what U.S. officials were hearing.Trump extends the Jones Act waiver for 90 daysSeparately Friday, the White House said Trump issued a 90-day extension to the Jones Act waiver, making it easier for non-American vessels to transport oil and natural gas.He first announced a 60-day waiver in March, hoping to stabilize energy prices and ease oil and gas shipments to the U.S. following the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic waterway through which a fifth of the world's oil passes in peacetime.The price of Brent crude oil, the international standard, retreated on the news, vacillating between $103 a barrel and more than $107 on Friday - still nearly 50% higher than when the war began.Iran has kept its stranglehold on traffic through the strait, attacking three ships this week, while the U.S. is maintaining a blockade on Iranian ports and Trump has ordered the military to "shoot and kill" small boats that could be placing mines.Germany's Defense Minister Boris Pistorius announced Saturday that the country was sending minesweeper ships to the Mediterranean to help remove Iranian mines from the Strait of Hormuz once hostilities end.The squeeze on shipments through the strait has rippled through global maritime trade flows, including through the Panama Canal nearly halfway around the world.A growing toll even as ceasefires holdSince the war began, at least 3,375 people have been killed in Iran, and more than 2,490 people in Lebanon, where new fighting between Israel and the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah broke out two days after the Iran war started, according to authorities.Additionally, 23 people were killed in Israel and more than a dozen in Gulf Arab states. Fifteen Israeli soldiers in Lebanon and 13 U.S. service members throughout the region have been killed.The U.N. peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon has also sustained casualties. An Indonesian peacekeeper died of wounds sustained in an attack on his base on March 29, raising to six - four Indonesians and two French - the number of force members killed since the war erupted, UNIFIL said Friday.The situation in Lebanon remained tense after Trump announced Thursday that Israel and Lebanon had agreed to extend a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah by three weeks. Hezbollah has not participated in the Washington-brokered diplomacy.In a video released by his office Friday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hailed "a process to achieve a historic peace between Israel and Lebanon."

INDIA NEWS | Sat, 25 Apr 2026, 6:37PM IST Washington, President Donald Trump says the US Navy is clearing Iranian mines from the Strait of Hormuz, a vital sea route for oil shipments whose disruption is increasingly threatening the global economy.Sweeping for underwater explosives could take months despite a tenuous ceasefire between the United States and Iran in the weekslong war, experts say. Any future claims that the US cleared the waterway where 20 per cent of the world's oil typically passes might fail to convince commercial freighters and their insurers that it is finally safe.Follow live updates from the West Asia war."You don't even have to have laid mines - you just have to make people believe that you've laid mines," said Emma Salisbury, a scholar at the Foreign Policy Research Institute's National Security Program."And even if the US sweeps the strait and says everything's clear, all the Iranians have to do is say, Well, actually, you haven't found them all yet,'" said Salisbury, who is also a fellow at the Royal Navy Strategic Studies Centre. "There's only so much the US can do to give that confidence back to commercial shipping."Also Read | Iran vows 'decisive response' if US continues its 'blockade, piracy, maritime robbery' in GulfSeeking out mines is one of the latest tactics announced by the Trump administration to get traffic moving again through the strait, as rising energy prices and wider economic effects pose a political risk. The US has also blockaded Iran's ports, seized ships tied to Tehran and planned to take part in a second round of ceasefire talks in Pakistan this weekend. Hegseth doesn't deny that mine-clearing could take 6 months Pentagon officials told lawmakers it would likely take six months to clear the mines that Iran has set in the strait, according to a person familiar with the situation who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive information. The information was delivered during a classified briefing at the House Armed Services Committee on Tuesday.When asked about the estimate, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters Friday that the military would not speculate on a timeline, but he did not deny it."Allegedly, that was something that was said," Hegseth said at a Pentagon news conference. "But we feel confident in our ability, in the correct period of time, to clear any mines that we identify."Trump said he has ordered the Navy to attack any boat laying mines in the strait."Additionally, our mine sweepers are clearing the Strait right now," the president said on social media Thursday. "I am hereby ordering that activity to continue, but at a tripled-up level!"Adm. Brad Cooper, the top US commander in the Middle East, recently told reporters that the military would be working to clear mines from the strait. He did not offer details.There is no indication that the US military is using warships, its most visible mine-clearing assets, in the strait now.But the Navy also has divers and small teams of explosive ordnance disposal technicians in the region that are capable of clearing mines. They are a less obvious target than a large warship.Experts also say some mine-clearing equipment could be moved off ships and deployed from land. It's easier for Iran to lay mines than it is to find them, an expert says It is unclear whether a single mine has been deployed. Iran has mentioned only the "likelihood" of mines in the strait's prewar routes.Estimates of Iran's mine stockpiles are in the low thousands, said Salisbury, of the Foreign Policy Research Institute. Most of its underwater explosives are believed to be older Soviet models. Some of its newer ones may be from China or made domestically."Minelaying is a lot easier than minesweeping, so you can literally push these things off the back of a speedboat," Salisbury said, though she noted the US could likely see that.Iran also has small submarines that can lay mines and are much harder to detect, Salisbury added. She said she has not seen indications that they have been destroyed in the war.If Iran has set mines in the strait, they are not the spiky balls floating on the surface seen in the movies, Salisbury said. The explosives are likely sitting on the seabed or moored to it by a cable and floating under the surface. They can be triggered by the water pressure changing when a ship passes or by the sound of its engine. How the US can sweep for mines in the Strait The US Navy now has two littoral combat ships in the Middle East that are capable of sweeping for mines, said a defence official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive military movements.Two US Avenger-class minesweepers based in Japan also have departed for the Middle East but were in the Pacific Ocean as of Friday, the official said.Steven Wills, a retired lieutenant commander who served on an Avenger-class ship, said the Navy is likely looking for sea explosives in order to create a safe channel through the strait. Minesweeping is a slower process that usually occurs after a conflict."Minehunting is walking through your yard, pulling individual weeds and dandelions so that you can walk safely from one side to the other. Minesweeping is more like mowing the grass," said Wills, an expert at the Centre for Maritime Strategy at the Navy League of the United States.Scott Savitz, a researcher with the RAND Corp. who focuses on naval operations and mine clearing, said the Navy does not necessarily have to remove every last mine."There are still areas that have not been cleared from World War II - and in some cases, World War I - just because it is so resource-intensive and it takes a lot of time," he said.Teams on the Navy's littoral combat ships can deploy remotely operated, uncrewed vehicles that use sonar and other technology to find mines, Wills said. They also carry charges to destroy the explosives.US Navy ships may also have explosive ordnance disposal teams, including divers, that can hunt for and destroy mines, Wills said. Helicopters can search for mines using lasers. Shipping companies are weighing the risks Eventually, shipping companies will be willing to take some risks to travel through the strait "particularly given how lucrative it is," Savitz said.Under Iran's approval procedure for vessels wanting to transit the strait, ships must take a different route than before the war - to the north, near Iran's coastline.Insurers are adding a clause that requires ship owners to contact Iranian authorities to ensure safe passage, said Dylan Mortimer, UK marine war leader for insurance broker Marsh.That certification does not mention mines specifically and is intended to protect against the entire spectrum of threats, including missile and drone attacks or seizures, Mortimer said.But mine do, at the very least, play a psychological role, a phenomenon Mortimer called the "spectre of threat.""That plays in the Iranians' favour, because whether there are mines there or not, people think there are mines there, and they will operate accordingly," Mortimer said.Those fears could mean it takes longer to restore confidence that the Strait is safe, even after the war.

INDIA NEWS | Sat, 25 Apr 2026, 4:53PM IST Washington: President Donald Trump has made it clear he expects his choice for Federal Reserve chair to quickly cut interest rates once he takes office. Yet Americans shouldn't pencil in lower borrowing costs for mortgages, auto loans, or business loans just yet.The odds of Kevin Warsh becoming chair by the time Jerome Powell's term ends May 15 shot higher Friday when U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C., Jeanine Pirro, said she would drop her probe into Powell over his testimony last summer about the Fed's costly building renovations.Also Read: US Justice Department drops criminal probe of Fed chair Powell, likely clearing way for WarshBut should he be confirmed, Warsh will still face several hurdles to reducing rates, including rising gas prices that are pushing up inflation, questions about his political independence, and 11 other Fed policymakers who have a vote on the decision, with most of them not ready to cut.At a Senate hearing Tuesday, Warsh pledged to be independent from White House pressure, but said relatively little about the direction he would take rates. While economists say he was likely just being cautious, he missed a chance to lay out an argument for rate cuts."Warsh's stated outlook is much more consistent with an extended hold than additional cuts," Aditya Bhave, head of U.S. economics at BofA Securities, wrote in a client note.Also Read: US Fed nominee Warsh commits to central bank's independence, with limitsTrump, meanwhile, has kept up the pressure. When asked last week on Fox Business whether he still expects interest rates to decline, Trump said, "when Kevin gets in, I do ... interest rates should be much lower."Here's what you need to know about Warsh and what he will face as next Fed chair:Rising inflation will make it harder to cut ratesWarsh, who was a member of the Fed's governing board from 2006 to 2011, regularly argued for rate cuts last year as he sought Trump's nomination to replace Powell. But since being named in late January, he has kept quiet, and hasn't made any public comments since the Iran war started Feb. 28.The war has pushed up oil and gas prices, which caused inflation to spike to a two-year high of 3.3% in March, above the Fed's target of 2%. The Fed typically keeps its short-term rate - currently at about 3.6% - elevated to combat inflation, or even raises it.The Fed reduces its rate to spur more spending and hiring, and earlier this year several Fed officials worried that a slowdown in job gains demonstrated that the rate was too high. But in recent weeks there are signs the job market may be stabilizing, possibly undercutting the need for a rate reduction.Christopher Waller, a Fed governor who voted in favor of a rate cut in January, last week expressed concerns that rising inflation could mean the Fed would have to stand pat. He also suggested that with the unemployment rate a still-low 4.3%, rate cuts might not be necessary.And Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said last week that if the Fed wanted "to wait for some clarity" before cutting rates, "I understand that," a statement widely seen as providing some cover for Warsh to keep rates unchanged for at least a few months.For now, Wall Street investors see little chance for a rate cut until October 2027, according to futures pricing.Certainly, if inflation cools in the coming months and unemployment worsens, more Fed officials could end up supporting a rate cut. The economy has been volatile for the past year, at times looking healthy and other times anemic.Warsh is just one of 12 voters at the FedAnother challenge for Warsh is that he will be just one of 12 voters on the Fed's rate-setting committee, which meets eight times a year to decide on where to set its overnight interest rate. Most have indicated in recent speeches or votes that they are reluctant to lower borrowing costs with inflation as high as it is. The committee voted 11-1 to keep rates unchanged in March.Next week, at a meeting likely to be Powell's last, the committee is widely expected to keep rates where they are.Stephen Miran, a governor Trump appointed last September, was the only official to vote for a rate cut in March and has voted to cut rates at every meeting he has attended. But Warsh will replace Miran. Another governor Trump named in his first term, Michelle Bowman, has also occasionally dissented in favor of a rate cut.But there is a larger faction on the committee that wants the Fed to start considering the possibility of hiking rates, rather than cutting them, at upcoming meetings, according to minutes of their March gathering.Members of the Fed's board typically seek to support the chair, former Fed officials say. But rarely can a chair single-handedly and quickly swing an entire committee in his or her direction.Jon Faust, an economist at Johns Hopkins and former adviser to Powell, said that the last time a chair was able to achieve something close to that was in the late 1990s, when then-chair Alan Greenspan famously persuaded the rest of the committee that rising productivity from the Internet would prevent inflation from taking off, and so the Fed didn't need to raise rates.Yet that was after Greenspan had been chair for several years and had built support on the committee, Faust said."Warsh comes in with essentially none of the gravitas that Greenspan had," Faust said. "Instead, Warsh comes in with the baggage that Trump has really loaded on him. It's not Warsh's fault, but Trump has led to legitimate questions about whether he'll act independently."One way to establish independence would be for Warsh to not cut rates right away, economists have said.Warsh didn't make a big case for cutsIn his remarks at Tuesday's hearing, Warsh acknowledged that "we have a short window to try to bring inflation back down to where it should be," which some economists said sounded more like an argument for rate hikes, rather than cuts.Warsh also said that the job market is essentially at what the Fed considers "maximum employment," or the lowest the unemployment rate can go before it starts to push up inflation. That also suggests the Fed doesn't need to cut to boost hiring.Before being nominated, Warsh had often argued that artificial intelligence would accelerate growth and make the economy more efficient. Similar to the Internet, he often said, it would allow the Fed to reduce interest rates without worrying about inflation.At his hearing, Warsh repeated his claim about AI, but added, "we don't know that, we can't bank on that," which struck many economists as a step back from his previous stance.Warsh's views "didn't have a lot of clarity going in," Claudia Sahm, chief economist at New Century Advisers and a former Fed economist, said. "And then he muddied the waters. There were so few specifics."
