On the 7th local time, Iranian sources said Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps took action against an oil tanker in the Oman-side waters of the Strait of Hormuz. Satellite-monitoring data cited by the sources indicated US aircraft were providing aerial cover in the area during the interception.

Data show two Japan-owned supertankers carrying Saudi crude are transiting toward the Strait of Hormuz to exit the Gulf region.

China’s National Financial Regulatory Administration and the Shanghai municipal government issued measures to accelerate the Shanghai International Reinsurance Centre. Insurers must strengthen internal controls and compliance and tighten operational‑risk and cross‑border capital‑flow management. NFRA will refine prudential rules for the reinsurance sector and strengthen supervision of solvency, related‑party transactions and business/financial governance. The Shanghai Financial Regulatory Bureau is supported to develop a risk‑aligned monitoring system to improve penetration and effectiveness of surveillance for cross‑border reinsurance cessions and on‑exchange transactions. The reinsurance registration and trading centre will be used to assist supervision and improve regulatory quality and efficiency.
