"Trump Vows to Enforce Gaza Ceasefire Amid Ongoing Attacks and Iran's Breach of Pact"  President Donald Trump has stated after a night of attacks in Lebanon during his ceasefire with Iran that if Hamas does not disarm, it will be costly for them. He wants the ceasefire in Gaza to go without friction, but believes it can be difficult to reach an agreement. Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have met to discuss the ceasefire in Gaza. Trump views the ceasefire as a major foreign policy achievement and is willing to support Ukraine's efforts to defend itself against Russia's attacks. The ceasefire was in effect from Friday evening to midnight on Sunday, but has not been maintained in any of the areas that have been attacked. See article on SVT News.

Iran Sanctions Become Even Stronger: Enemy to be Weakened US President Donald Trump's global sanctions have been court-ordered - a valuable move for China. They are a direct sanction against a large oil refinery in China and around 40 ships and tankers involved in the transportation of Iranian oil. The sanctions penalize all those who do business with the affected companies. China's Hengli Petrochemicals facility has a capacity of approximately 400,000 barrels of crude oil per day, making it one of the largest independent refineries in China. The sanctions penalize all those who do business with the affected companies. The Iranian government's reaction is that the sanctions will become "even stronger" and that the enemy will become "weaker and more humiliated". See article on SVT News.
