22 August 2026 in brief

US Energy Secretary Chris Wright said US military help had moved a seven-day average of more than 8 million barrels a day through the Strait of Hormuz, figures TankerTrackers.com questioned and that the administration has not backed with vessel-level data. [1] Iran's state news agency IRNA said Iran had allowed a number of Iraqi oil tankers through the strait after repeated requests from Baghdad. [1] The head of the Iranian armed forces' missing persons committee told Tasnim that Qatar was holding Iranian air force pilots in poor physical condition, a claim Qatar disputes, having denied that it was holding Iranian pilots. [1] Mohsen Rezaei, described by AFP as head of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said any country taking part in the US economic restrictions on Iran would be considered an enemy.
