  "summary": "US President Donald Trump has demanded compensation from Iran for past attacks and atrocities, which Iran allegedly backed or perpetrated. According to Business Recorder, Trump made the statement on Truth Social, saying he would seek conflict compensation from Iran as part of any peace negotiations.\n\nThe Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway for global oil supplies, remains blocked, with Iran demanding that the US first end its blockade of Iranian ports and lift sanctions on its oil industry. As reported by Quartz, Tehran said the US must also pay reparations before the strait can reopen.\n\nOil prices have risen, with Brent crude extending gains, and prices surging back to $85 per barrel, as reported by The National Business. The blockage has sent fuel prices soaring and rattled the world economy.",
