The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has announced plans to provide between $20 billion and $50 billion in immediate financial assistance to nations affected by the Middle East conflict, as food insecurity is expected to impact at least 45 million people. The fragile ceasefire remains under scrutiny, with ongoing accusations between Tehran and Washington regarding violations.

U.S. President Donald Trump's commitment to retain military assets in the region adds to investor caution, with Brent crude prices rising sharply to $98 per barrel.
