  "account": "Iran and Oman have reached an agreement to share revenues from the Strait of Hormuz, according to the semi-official Tasnim news agency. The Revolutionary Guards spokesperson stated that the United States was obstructing negotiations between Iran and Oman, which resulted in a delay in reaching the agreement.\n\nA projectile struck a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, causing a fire that was later extinguished, reported international news agency Reuters. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations agency confirmed that all crew members were safe and accounted for, with no environmental impact reported.\n\nIn response to renewed threats from the White House, Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook stated that the Trump administration had no legal basis to remove her from the central bank's governing board. Trump had previously attempted to remove her a year ago over allegations of mortgage fraud, which she denies.\n\nIn other news, at least 160 people were confirmed dead and many others missing in Nepal and Tibet after flash floods caused by the Bhote Koshi River originating from Tibet. These floods engulfed areas in Rasuwa, Nuwakot, and Dhading districts. Nikolay Mladenov, the Board of Peace high representative, criticized Israel for its attacks on Palestinian territory, warning that an alternative to the US proposal would lead to another war.\n\nThe aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, which has been deployed for a record-setting 250 days at sea amid the Middle East war, will stop in Thailand on its way home. Concerns have been raised about deteriorating mental health among the crew and shortages of supplies, including food and hygiene products.",
