US steps up sanctions as Mideast attacks flare

AFP | Washington The United States issued new Iran-related sanctions yesterday, taking aim at the procurement of machinery for the country's defense industry at a time when war is flaring in the Middle East. The US Treasury Department said it was targeting an individual and eight entities over their roles in the sourcing and transshipment of 'sensitive machinery for Iran's defence industry.' 'The United States remains resolved to disrupt any effort by Iran to procure the sensitive, dual-use technology, components, and machinery that underpin the regime's ballistic missile, unmanned aerial vehicle, and asymmetric weapons programs,' said Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent in a statement. He added that Treasury would continue to target Iran's ability to make and proliferate such weapons, 'which threaten regional stability and global security.' The action comes as conflict is heating up in the Middle East. Iran has been firing daily missile salvos at Israel for the past week, since a wide-ranging Israeli attack on the Islamic Republic's nuclear installations and military bases triggered war. The Treasury's latest targets included Iranian firm Towse Sanaye Nim Resanaye Tarashe and Hong Kong-based Unico Shipping Co, whose vessel was carrying machinery for a designated company. In a separate statement, the Treasury Department said it imposed sanctions directed at Yemen's Iran-backed Huthi rebels as well -- on four individuals, 12 entities and two vessels that imported oil and other illicit goods in support of the group. 'The Houthis rely on a series of front companies and trusted facilitators to clandestinely generate revenue, procure weapons components, and advance their reign of terror in partnership with the Iranian regime,' said US Deputy Treasury Secretary Michael Faulkender. He said the latest move was the department's 'most significant to date against the group.' In a separate statement, State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce added that Washington seeks to deprive the Huthis of 'resources they need to carry out their reckless and destabilizing actions.'

Shell CEO: Contingency Plans Ready If Strait Of Hormuz Closure Triggers Energy Shock

Shell Plc is preparing contingency plans in case the conflict between Israel and Iran broadens and disrupts oil and gas flows through the critical maritime chokepoint of the Strait of Hormuz. On Thursday, CEO Wael Sawan told Bloomberg's Shery Ahn at the Japan Energy Summit & Exhibition in Tokyo, 'If that artery is blocked, for whatever reason, it has a huge impact on global trade,' adding, 'We have plans in the eventuality that things deteriorate.' Although energy flows through the critical waterway—responsible for approximately 20% of global oil trade—remain uninterrupted (at the moment), traders have been on high alert all this week amid widespread GPS jamming in the region, which has degraded navigational awareness and may have contributed to what is shaping up to be a major ecological disaster. On Wednesday, former Iranian Economy Minister Ehsan Khandouzi stated on X and warned… 'Starting tomorrow, for 100 days, no oil tankers or LNG cargoes will be able to pass through the strait without Iran's approval,' Khandouzi said. He stated, 'This policy is decisive if it is implemented in a timely manner. Any delay in its implementation means enduring more war inside the country. Trump's battle must be ended with a combination of economy and security.' Such messaging, especially when paired with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) naval activity in the region, raises the increasing probability of IRGC actions targeting commercial shipping lanes in the strait. This escalation could serve as the catalyst that turns JPMorgan's $120–$130 per barrel Brent crude forecast from a scenario into a market reality. Back to Shell's CEO—he told Bloomberg's Shery Ahn, 'What is particularly challenging right now is some of the jamming that's happening,' adding that 'Shell is being very careful' along major maritime routes in the region. The most imminent threat of a Strait of Hormuz blockade could come as soon as this weekend. Bloomberg reported overnight: Senior US officials are preparing for the possibility of a strike on Iran in coming days , according to people familiar with the matter, as Israel and the Islamic Republic continue to exchange fire. Some of them pointed to potential plans for a weekend strike . Top leaders at a handful of federal agencies have begun getting ready for an attack, one person said. Commenting on the dire situation, Manish Bhargava, CEO of Singapore-based Straits Investment, warned, 'Direct US involvement in an attack on Iran would almost certainly trigger a major spike in oil prices.' He said, 'This surge would aggravate global inflation, making central bank efforts — like the Fed's — to control it more difficult and potentially delaying interest rate cuts.'

Avli by tashas Opens in Bahrain, Bringing True Athenian Hospitality to Manama

Avli by tashas, developed by renowned restaurateur Natasha Sideris officially opens its doors in Bahrain on June 20. The restaurant is part of the portfolio of Harve, an initiative of Bahrain-based Infracorp. Following the success of its multi-award-winning flagship in Dubai, recognised by the Michelin Guide, Avli Bahrain brings the spirit of the Mediterranean to the heart of Bahrain. This distinctive experience has been brought to Bahrain by Harve, which specializes in refined hospitality and immersive cultural experiences. Harve aims to redefine the regional lifestyle scene by introducing innovative concepts that blend art, cuisine, and design. An intimate evolution of the Avli experience, the Bahrain space offers a lounge-style layout, inviting both convivial gatherings and quiet moments of connection. Guests are welcomed into an atmosphere of soulful elegance, featuring a large collection of antiques, meticulously curated by Tashas Group visual stylist Nicky Greig and founder Natasha Sideris, contributing to a space that feels richly layered and storied. The design journey is further enriched by collaborations with celebrated international artists. At the entrance, hand-drawn murals by artist Alexandra Ross, inspired by ancient Greek frescos, lend the space a timeless sensibility. Suspended above the main dining area is a poetic fabric installation by Elonah O'Neil Reid, reminiscent of laundry lines in a sunlit courtyard – a tribute to the name Avli, meaning 'courtyard' in Greek. Ceramic artist from Athens, Keti Anastasaki, contributes a striking three-dimensional artwork to the restaurant's exterior, while intricate mosaic designs by artist Marina Ehlers bring added texture and visual richness to the space. 'We're thrilled to become part of Bahrain's vibrant dining landscape,' said Tashas Group CEO and Founder, Natasha Sideris. 'There's such appreciation here for quality and genuine hospitality, which perfectly aligns with our philosophy that every guest should feel like family from the moment they step through our doors.' 'Avli embodies the kind of experience we're passionate about creating—spaces where guests feel immediately at ease, where the design and food invite connection,' commented Abdulaziz Tawfeeqi, the Senior Director of Project Development at Infracorp. 'It's a perfect reflection of the hospitality culture we value deeply in Bahrain.' At the heart of the experience is the à la carte menu crafted by Head Chef Vlassia Anagnostou. Drawing from the rich heritage of Greek cuisine, the menu features a refined mix of signature favourites and dishes that speak to the soul of Mediterranean cooking. Head Chef Vlassia commented, 'I want our guests in Bahrain to experience the soul of Greece – in a way that feels relevant today. Our menu honours timeless flavours, reimagined with contemporary presentation to spark conversation and bring people together.' Experience the soul of rich, Athenian culture at Avli Bahrain, where every meal is an occasion and every guest becomes family.
