Last update: 6 hours agoEnergy & Shipping: Oil prices wavered after a sharp quarterly slump as Persian Gulf exports rebounded toward pre-war levels and US-Iran talks in Qatar continued, while Iran warned oil tankers to use its approved Strait of Hormuz routes or face “forceful response,” keeping shipping risk front and center.

Lebanon’s Industrial Heritage: Lebanon’s Mar Mikhael Train Station is being conserved under an “Industrial Heritage Park” project, preserving decades of railway wear—bullet impacts, grease stains, and weathering—rather than wiping history clean. Defense Tech (Lebanon-linked): Israel signed a $7m deal for AI-powered drone-detection radar to counter Hezbollah drone threats, highlighting how conflict pressures accelerate local defense innovation. Local Infrastructure (Lebanon-related): Mt. Juliet’s “Old Lebanon Dirt Road” widening project kicked off, a reminder of how road upgrades can reshape safety and traffic patterns.
