The US and Iran are currently in a fragile truce following February's military strikes, with a temporary ceasefire recently extended.&nbsp;The US maintains a total naval blockade on Iranian ports, while Iran continues to restrict traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.&nbsp;Diplomatic talks are deadlocked in Islamabad, as neither side will agree to lift blockades or halt nuclear programs first.&nbsp;Regional tensions remain high due to simultaneous "truce violations" between Israel and Hezbollah on the Lebanese border.&nbsp;Global oil prices stay near $100&nbsp;per barrel as the maritime standoff continues to disrupt energy supplies through the Persian Gulf.&nbsp;

Iranian authorities have intensified their violent crackdown on anti-government demonstrations, resulting in a dramatic increase in deaths. Human rights organisations estimated that thousands&nbsp;of protestors have been killed.
