Trump said the military is loading warships with powerful weapons and warned force could follow if negotiations fail.

  • Vice President J.D. Vance traveled to Islamabad on Friday to join special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner for peace negotiations after a two-week cease-fire, though Iran warned it would skip talks unless the cease-fire expands to Lebanon.
  • Consumer prices rose 3.3% in March as the war sent energy costs soaring, and with the administration expecting a resolution in about 24 hours, the Federal Reserve faces further distance from its inflation target.
  • Europe could face jet fuel shortages if ships are not allowed to pass through the Strait of Hormuz soon, an association of airports warned, as Iran reportedly charges fees to tankers in the waterway.
