Pretty much everywhere you look, we have increasing conflict. But the Middle East is still taking up more of my time than most things. In part, that is because we are awaiting what kind of an Israeli response there will be to those Iranian attacks. The 180 ballistic missiles that were sent towards and into Israel a couple of weeks ago, at the same time that the war in Lebanon continues to escalate between Israel and Hezbollah. Maybe start with the Iran side. The big news right now is a couple of pieces of information from the Americans. First that the US is sending over a THAAD missile defense system, along with 100 US soldiers, to operate it to Israel to improve Israeli air defenses against incoming attacks from outside the country. And secondly, that the US Treasury Department has announced additional sanctions against tankers that have shut off their transponders and are helping the Iranians to illegally export significant amounts of sanction-breaking oil. Prices can go up on the back of that. An unusual thing for the Americans to do a few weeks before the election, but shows just how concerned they are about potential escalation in the region. So let me give you some context here. First point. On the one hand, the Americans have sent THAAD systems to Israel before. So it's not like there aren't any American soldiers on the ground operating in Israel. This is not such a game-changer. In fact, such a decision was made not only years ago, but also after October 7th. But it is notable that it comes a year later on the back of potential significant escalation, both in the Northern front that we're already seeing and with Iran that we might be.
