沙特拦截胡塞武装向利雅得发射的弹道导弹，官员称
当地时间周日早些时候，打击也门胡塞武装分子的沙特领导联军表示，已击落该组织向沙特首都利雅得发射的一枚弹道导弹。
联军在X平台上发帖称：“防空系统拦截并摧毁了恐怖分子胡塞民兵向利雅得发射的弹道导弹。”
在联军发表声明之前，法新社一名记者报道称，利雅得传出三声爆炸。
此前，居民收到了针对“敌对空中威胁”的警报信息，敦促他们待在安全地点，随后发生了爆炸。
阿亚图拉会见伊朗司法机构负责人，聚焦战争损害赔偿
自战争开始以来一直未公开露面的阿亚图拉·穆杰塔巴·哈梅内伊周六会见了伊朗司法机构负责人霍贾特伊斯兰·莫赫森尼·埃杰伊，讨论了若干问题。
最引人注意的是，关于战争的议题，X平台上发布的会晤纪要称，伊朗承诺“坚决追究”由美国和以色列“所犯罪行造成的物质和精神损害赔偿”。
伊朗此前作为和平协议一部分提出的一项要求是，美国必须出资重建该国大片受损地区。美方驳回了这一要求。
声明虽未具体说明，但表示双方还讨论了“尽可能充分地利用现代技术”。
哈梅内伊在针对宫殿的袭击中受伤，那次袭击还导致其父亲、阿亚图拉·阿里·哈梅内伊身亡。战争首日的这次袭击还造成这位领导人的女儿、孙女、女婿和儿媳丧生。穆杰塔巴·哈梅内伊幸免于难，但自那次袭击以来一直处于藏匿状态。
伊朗表示在巴基斯坦斡旋的协议下仍愿与美对话，特使称
伊朗驻伊斯兰堡大使周六表示，根据6月达成的、由巴基斯坦斡旋的临时协议，伊朗仍愿就结束冲突与美方对话；他指责华盛顿破坏外交努力，并延长了围绕霍尔木兹海峡的对峙。
大使礼萨·阿米里·莫加达姆表示，伊朗最近通过巴基斯坦传达称，如果华盛顿解除海上封锁，伊朗准备重新开放霍尔木兹海峡；但他指责特朗普总统以坚持继续封锁伊朗港口为由拒绝了该提议。
巴基斯坦和卡塔尔协助促成了6月协议，该协议旨在恢复通过该海峡的航运、解除美国的海上封锁，并启动旨在达成一项涉及伊朗核计划的更广泛协议的谈判。
莫加达姆在伊斯兰堡的一场研讨会上表示，在巴基斯坦陆军参谋长阿西姆·穆尼尔元帅访问德黑兰期间，伊朗官员曾表达过在华盛顿结束封锁的前提下重新开放该海峡的意愿。
莫加达姆还表示，德黑兰将研究包含巴基斯坦、沙特阿拉伯和土耳其的《麦加联合防务协议》，然后再决定是否支持，称其可能是促进团结的工具。“我们将研究麦加协议，如果它好，我们就会支持它，”他说。
伊朗总统承认战争与制裁影响之下许多人难以糊口
伊朗总统马苏德·佩泽希齐扬周六表示，随着与美国战争带来的经济压力不断加大，许多伊朗人正难以维持温饱。
近几周来，美国减少了军事行动，转而施加经济压力；而伊朗领导人则表示，在冲突陷入僵局之际，只有没有来自华盛顿的压力和威胁，和平谈判才能成功。
“在这个社会中有许多人因我们身陷的战争、因我们所处战时环境而难以维持温饱，”佩泽希齐扬在其网站发布的讲话中说。
佩泽希齐扬呼吁结束他所谓的“非战非和状态”，称德黑兰“也必须摆脱这种局面”，但未说明具体方式。
他的这番言论发表之际，人们对战事重燃的担忧加剧。周五，美国驻土耳其大使汤姆·巴拉克表示，美国对伊朗的打击最早可能在本周末恢复。
“本周末可能发动打击吗？绝对可能，”巴拉克对播客主持人马里奥·纳瓦法尔说。巴拉克同时还担任美国驻叙利亚特使，在伊朗事务上并无直接角色。

胡塞武装称在致命袭击后攻击了沙特阿拉伯及也门亚丁
也门胡塞武装组织周六对沙特阿拉伯和也门国际公认政府的所在地发动了新一轮袭击；此前该伊朗支持的组织指责沙特王国发动的袭击造成17人死亡。
随着长达数年的停火在夏季破裂，沙特阿拉伯及其在也门的代理人政府近几周来持续遭到胡塞武装袭击。
这些也门武装人员表示，在过去24小时内，他们以沙特三个机场（包括首都利雅得的国际机场）、能源设施、一条管道和一个空军基地为目标发动袭击。
军方发言人叶海亚·萨雷表示，该组织“分两个阶段”向“沙特敌人首都利雅得的哈立德国王国际机场”，以及东部达曼和南部奈季兰的机场发射了导弹。
不过该国际机场周六在X平台上发帖称，在本月多次致命袭击导致关闭后，将于“周日起”恢复国内和国际航班。
胡塞武装还袭击了南部的海米斯穆谢特空军基地，以及“原油泵站和自东向西的原油管道”。
沙特民防机构表示，周六在拦截两枚胡塞导弹后，还处理了麦加和麦地那地区坠落的碎片。胡塞武装否认以这两座伊斯兰最圣洁的城市为目标，称沙特的说法是“弥天大谎”。
胡塞武装还向也门南部城市亚丁开火，亚丁是沙特支持的政府的临时所在地；他们称以沙特军队监管的海军基地和军营为目标。
这些新的袭击宣称是在胡塞武装的Al-Masirah电视台指责沙特王国在也门发动的另一起袭击造成十多人死亡之后作出的。利雅得尚未承认这些据称的袭击。
也门内战使伊朗支持的胡塞武装与沙特支持的国际公认政府对立，自2022年停火以来一直沉寂，但随着更广泛的中东战争扰乱该地区，于7月再次爆发。
国务院更新中东14国旅行警示
美国国务院已更新中东14个国家的旅行警示，“以反映伊朗支持的胡塞武装地区侵略的威胁”。
这些警示还紧随国家情报总监杰伊·克莱顿致国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥的一份备忘录被公开披露之后，该备忘录警告称，伊朗杀害美国人的图谋在中东及其他地区已发展到“高级阶段”。
这些警告发出之际，特朗普政府正权衡是否重启对伊朗的军事打击，以及是否向对抗胡塞武装的沙特军队提供空中支援。
革命卫队官员称美国对伊威胁“很大程度上是为媒体消费”
伊朗革命卫队一名官员抨击美国及特朗普总统反复发出的威胁，称其“很大程度上是为媒体消费”，并表示如果敌对行动重演，该国已做好准备。
“敌人自己比任何人都清楚，它在当前条件下无法开展有效行动，必然无法达成其目标，”革命卫队发言人侯赛因·莫赫贝准将周六对半官方法尔斯通讯社说。
特朗普表示，任何可能对伊朗的打击都将推迟到11月3日美国中期选举之后，但他反复表示，只要愿意，他随时可以通过重启军事行动结束与伊朗的战争。
莫赫贝表示，如果美国真的重返军事打击，伊朗将做好准备。
“即使敌人采取有限行动，鉴于现有的战备状态和武装部队的作战计划，伊朗的回应也将是数倍之大，”他说。
阿联酋在油轮漏油后关闭海滩
阿拉伯联合酋长国在一艘油轮发生漏油后，关闭了海滩，并警告渔民避开其海湾沿岸部分区域。
气候变化与环境部表示，泄漏影响到组成该联邦的七个酋长国之一的乌姆盖万海滩，清理工作正在进行。美联社获得的图像显示，石油冲上乌姆盖万的海滩。
该部表示，这次泄漏不构成健康风险，但未提供有关泄漏规模的细节。
此次泄漏发生在伊朗国有广播机构报道一艘油轮在试图未经与伊朗协调穿越霍尔木兹海峡时撞上水雷并起火的两周后。
胡塞武装称空袭致也门9人死亡，包括妇女和儿童
据伊朗支持的胡塞叛军称，对也门持续两天的打击已造成9人死亡，其中包括妇女和儿童。
据胡塞控制的卫生部称，周六在也门首都萨那，两起独立的打击造成5人死亡，包括一名妇女和一名儿童。
同样在周六，胡塞媒体中心表示，一波打击袭击了塔伊兹省沿海城市穆哈，该市于9月初被胡塞武装占领。该中心未提供被击中目标的细节，美联社也无法独立核实胡塞武装的说法。
周五，在塔伊兹市附近、该国复苏的内战中暴力温床希巴镇，一架空袭炸弹击中一所房屋，造成同一家庭的4人丧生——两名妇女和两名儿童。
胡塞武装将此轮打击归咎于沙特阿拉伯，而此时该王国与伊朗支持的叛军之间的战斗已经升级。沙特阿拉伯未回应置评请求。
沙特军队拦截瞄准石油枢纽延布、塔伊夫的胡塞导弹
在也门作战的沙特领导联军周六宣布，已拦截胡塞武装向该国西部塔伊夫和延布发射的两枚导弹。
此前不久，利雅得民防机构针对四个西部地区发布了“潜在危险”警告，包括塔伊夫、延布，以及伊斯兰最圣城所在地麦加和延布。
这些警报在几分钟后全部被解除。
该机构指示居民“前往最近的安全地点”。该机构还重申了一项法律警告，禁止分享与“拦截导弹和无人机”相关的图像或信息。
作为也门复苏内战的一部分，这个海湾王国近几周来反复遭到也门伊朗支持的胡塞武装袭击。
延布是红海沿岸一个主要的石油出口枢纽，使利雅得得以绕过伊朗对霍尔木兹海峡的封锁，进行其大部分原油出口。
伊朗警告美军船只任何时候都不得进入海湾
伊朗周六表示，美国船只“在任何情况下”都绝不允许进入海湾，而特朗普总统将“把这个梦想带进坟墓”。
这番言论发表之际，美国和以色列对伊朗重启袭击的威胁不断升级；美国驻土耳其大使汤姆·巴拉克警告称，华盛顿“绝对”可能最早在本周末打击伊朗。
“在任何情况下、任何时间，我们都不允许美国军舰进入波斯湾，”据伊朗国家电视台报道，伊朗武装部队总参谋长阿里·阿卜杜拉希说。
“美国总统只能梦想看到武装部队进入波斯湾。他会把这个梦想带进坟墓。”

情报主管警告：伊朗“加大针对美方人员力度”
国家情报总监杰伊·克莱顿周五警告称，伊朗“大幅加大”了针对海外美方人员的力度，杀害美国人的图谋已在中东和其他国家达到“高级阶段”。
该警告载于一份发给国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥、并被CBS新闻获得的非机密备忘录中。此时，鉴于对伊朗直接威胁以及也门伊朗支持的胡塞运动威胁的担忧，国务院正在调整中东各地外交机构的人员配置，美军也在缩减其在该地区的存在。
“伊朗人针对美国公民致命图谋的努力，已在中东和某些其他国家达到高级阶段，”克莱顿写道。
这份备忘录是在特朗普政府考虑恢复对伊朗军事打击之际发布的，其中未指明据称图谋正在进行的特定目标或国家，也未表明袭击是否可能迫在眉睫。
克莱顿表示，美国情报界正在努力降低通过各渠道获得的敏感情报的密级，以便能够更广泛地与国务院人员共享。中情局局长约翰·拉特克利夫被抄送了该备忘录。

美国将缩减中东4个大使馆人员配置
美国国务院表示，将缩减其在中东四个大使馆的人员配置，不包括沙特阿拉伯——本周早些时候，该国非必要外交人员和家属已被命令撤离。
国务院表示，这些人员调整——源于对也门伊朗支持的胡塞武装可能在该地区升级火箭弹、导弹和无人机袭击的担忧——将影响驻约旦、黎巴嫩、卡塔尔和阿拉伯联合酋长国的大使馆，但不涉及撤离命令。
相关大使馆都处于所谓的“限制行动”状态，这已经缩减了人员规模。这些大使馆将继续开放。
周三，一名美国官员和一名美国高级军事官员告诉CBS新闻，由于胡塞武装持续的地区威胁和伊朗的直接威胁，美军一直在悄悄缩减其中东各驻地的存在。

伊朗总统下周将赴莫斯科与普京会晤
据路透社报道，伊朗外交部长阿巴斯·阿拉格齐表示，伊朗总统马苏德·佩泽希齐扬下周将前往莫斯科，与俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京会谈。
佩泽希齐扬与普京面谈没多久，但这将是两人在持续战争期间在俄罗斯的首次会晤。
两位领导人于10月8日在土库曼斯坦举行的里海环境峰会间隙会面。两人还于9月在吉尔吉斯斯坦举行的一次峰会上会晤。
俄罗斯外交部长谢尔盖·拉夫罗夫本周早些时候访问了德黑兰，双方继续加强关系。阿拉格齐表示，俄罗斯和伊朗比以往任何时候都更密切，尽管特朗普总统前一天称俄罗斯几乎没怎么帮助伊朗。
联合国就遭围困的也门塔伊兹市发出警报
联合国周五表示，向被亲伊朗胡塞武装围困的塔伊兹运送援助的时间正在耗尽，这些武装人员正阻止物资抵达也门第三大城市。
胡塞武装自10月初以来一直包围着塔伊兹，封锁了连接该城与亚丁的道路，亚丁是沙特支持的、国际公认政府的临时首都。
“我们迫切需要安全、持续和不受阻碍的人道主义通道，以便基本物资和挽救生命的援助能够送达有需要的人，”联合国人道主义机构OCHA（人道协调厅）说。
“塔伊兹被切断已有20天，且仍在持续，”OCHA发言人延斯·拉克说。
“我们越来越看到，战斗使我们无法进入，也使人们无法离开，”他在日内瓦的一场新闻发布会上说。
拉克表示，日益减少的供水日益令人担忧，因为大多数居民依赖卡车运入的水。
“由于道路封闭，且驱动卡车的柴油极为匮乏，该市的产水量已下降约一半，”他说。
尽管特朗普此前有中期选举承诺，美特使仍不排除本周末打击伊朗的可能
一名美国官员为本周末打击伊朗的可能性敞开了大门，尽管特朗普总统此前表示，在不到两周后的中期选举之前不会发动打击。
“本周末可能发动打击吗？绝对可能，”美国驻土耳其大使、叙利亚事务负责人汤姆·巴拉克在回答以色列军方电台提问时说，他在伊朗政策上并无直接角色。
“（特朗普总统）非常明确。他对达成交易持开放态度、随时可及，而我们已坐在谈判桌前好几个月好几个月了，”巴拉克说。
面临周二选举的以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡近几天来反复誓言要推翻伊朗的神权国家，此前自去年以来已对伊朗发动两次大规模轰炸行动。
特朗普也释放出在外交长期僵局后恢复对伊朗打击的开放态度，尽管他早些时候表示，这不会在11月3日中期选举之前发生。
周五早些时候，特朗普重申了一句常说的话：美国可以选择随时通过重启军事行动结束战争，但也可以让该国在制裁下“凋零”。

欧洲及中东外长在伊斯坦布尔会谈中推动和平与外交
八个欧洲和中东国家的外长周五在伊斯坦布尔以一种前所未有的形式举行会晤，敦促外交与和平解决方案在整个中东占上风，并重新开放霍尔木兹海峡。
英国、法国、德国和意大利的部长与土耳其、沙特阿拉伯、巴基斯坦和埃及的同行会晤，讨论霍尔木兹海峡——伊朗战争中被封锁的关键贸易通道——以及也门问题和结束俄乌冲突的途径。
会谈的核心是霍尔木兹海峡和曼德海峡的局势，这正使全球贸易瘫痪并推高能源价格；此外还包括德黑兰盟友、来自也门的胡塞武装对沙特阿拉伯的袭击。
法国外长让-诺埃尔·巴罗表示，伊朗和美国之间新的升级“只会制造输家，并无疑将对碳氢化合物价格产生非常严重的后果”。
“这八个国家集团首先要做的是呼吁双方保持最大克制，因为我们承受不起该地区另一场升级，”他对记者说。
意大利的安东尼奥·塔亚尼表示，地区问题无法“从纯军事角度”解决。
华尔街在油价上涨压力下多数走低
周五，华尔街股市在油价上涨带来的日益加大压力下走低。
标普500指数下跌0.2%，在前一日下跌基础上进一步扩大。该指数有望连续第二周录得跌幅。截至美东时间上午11:50，道琼斯工业平均指数下跌550点，即略高于1%。
纳斯达克综合指数上涨0.2%，受几只大型科技股上涨提振，这也帮助缓和了其他板块的跌幅。
油价上涨严重拖累大盘，基准标普500指数中每四只股票就有三只下跌。布伦特原油期货每桶价格上涨3.5%至逾117美元。自10月初不足97美元以来已大幅飙升，目前处于3月以来最高水平。
特朗普称美国可夺取伊朗全部石油：“我们可以拿下整个国家”
特朗普总统在离开白宫前往佛罗里达州为选民造势时，对伊朗发表了熟悉的论调，但也补充说，如果愿意，美国可以夺取伊朗的全部石油。
“伊朗现在做不了太多。而如果我们愿意，可以就此夺取全部石油，”特朗普说。“我们可以拿下整个国家。”
“而且如你所知，霍尔木兹海峡是我们的，我们将保持这种方式，”总统补充道。
特朗普还被问及美国驻联合国大使迈克·沃尔茨称与伊朗的战争可能再拖一年的说法，而总统数月来一直说战争将“很快”结束。
“我们可以非常迅速地结束它，”特朗普说。“但伊朗是一个失败的国家。我们正在取出我们想要的全部石油。”
“问题是，‘我们想彻底了结它，还是只想让它凋零？’因为我们正在得到我们想要的一切，”他说。
分析人士称阿联酋漏油事件涉事油轮已确认
据接受路透社采访的分析人士称，在阿拉伯联合酋长国海岸附近发生漏油的油轮身份已确认。
阿联酋当局未公布船只名称，但Orbital Risk Intelligence首席执行官马丁·凯利告诉路透社，油膜来自一艘名为Gem No. 2的船只。
另一名分析人士告诉该通讯社，卫星图像似乎显示从该油轮泄漏出一大片油污。
“这片油膜相当大，覆盖约160平方公里（60平方英里），看起来来自这艘船，”冲突与环境观测站研究员利昂·莫兰说。
“此外，如此靠近海岸的油膜增加了其影响附近海滩和生态敏感栖息地的可能性，”他说。
航运消息人士告诉路透社，Gem No. 2于10月9日在阿联酋Al Jazeera以西13海里处被一枚不明抛射物击中。
当时没有组织声称对此事件负责，但海事安全消息人士告诉该通讯社，事件发生在霍尔木兹海峡之外。
法国外长称伊朗与美国进一步升级“不会留下赢家”
法国外长周五表示，伊朗和美国之间任何进一步的升级“都不会留下赢家”。
据路透社报道，让-诺埃尔·巴罗在与英国、德国、土耳其、埃及、巴基斯坦和沙特阿拉伯外长会晤后，在伊斯坦布尔对记者说，“伊朗和美国之间进一步的升级将不会留下赢家，并可能对碳氢化合物价格产生非常严重的后果”。
阿联酋居民描述油轮漏油后闻到汽油味
阿拉伯联合酋长国北部的居民描述了该国海岸附近发生漏油后闻到汽油味的情况。
近几天来，许多阿联酋人已在社交媒体上报告闻到化学品气味，包括阿联酋最大城市迪拜北部地区的居民。
“过去两天，气味就像10个加油站把汽油洒得到处都是，”一名沙迦居民要求匿名后告诉法新社。
“我当时在阳台上，吓得以为家里煤气泄漏，我会把大家都炸飞。”
气候变化与环境部周五在一份声明中说，阿联酋当局“发现一起影响乌姆盖万海滩的油轮漏油”，所指为迪拜以北的一个酋长国。
此次漏油消息传出前一天，伊朗声称已在波斯湾水域击中四艘商船，并称另有三艘在该地区撞上水雷；不过特朗普总统指责德黑兰编造这些事件以推高油价。

伊朗国家电视台称霍尔木兹海峡“不合规”船只通行已完全停止
伊朗国家电视台周五援引一名接近伊斯兰革命卫队（IRGC）海军的不具名消息人士称，在伊朗对船只和导航支持系统发动一系列袭击后，所有“不合规”船只通过霍尔木兹海峡的行动已完全停止。
报道援引该消息人士的话称，如果美国军事护航和船对船转运——伊朗政权将这一切称为“石油走私”——恢复，针对这些船只及其技术支持系统的行动将“有力得多”。
伊朗一再警告商船不要使用穿越该海峡的既有传统航线——战前全球约20%的石油供应经此通过。德黑兰要求所有船只申请授权并使用靠近其海岸的北部航线，并已持续数月袭击拒绝照做的船只。
然而，特朗普政府鼓励航运商使用靠近阿曼的另一条南部航线，以避开伊朗的通行费。
伊朗周四声称已击中四艘使用该航线的船只，并称另有三艘在美国指定的航道上撞上水雷。
特朗普总统周四驳斥了伊朗关于打击船只的说法，称其为旨在在美国中期选举临近前推高全球油价的谎言。
在战争期间的不同时间，伊朗和美国都曾声称已完全停止违反各自对该水道封锁的通行。
伊朗外长称以色列与美国的关系“寄生性”
伊朗外长称以色列与美国的关系“寄生性”，理由是据称美国纳税人出资为以色列提供导弹防御。
“过去三年，美国在以色列的导弹防御上花费了110亿美元纳税人资金，”阿巴斯·阿拉格齐周五在X平台发帖写道，援引独立政策分析师斯蒂芬·塞姆勒的计算，后者称其使用五角大楼预算文件、媒体报道和开源情报得出这一数字。
CBS新闻无法独立核实这些数字。
塞姆勒是安全政策改革研究所的创始人，该智库据其网站称，以“经验主义为驱动、以进步价值观为指导”，旨在促进“美国外交政策的有意义改革，以打破无休止的战争循环，并服务于美国工人阶级最迫切的经济、社会和政治需求”。
阿拉格齐还表示，美国“为防御以色列发射的拦截弹比以色列还多”，这一说法得到《华盛顿邮报》5月一篇援引美国国防部数据和美国官员的报道的支持。
“那不是共生关系，”阿拉格齐说。“那是寄生关系。”
阿联酋报告油轮漏油
阿拉伯联合酋长国周五报告其海岸附近一艘油轮发生漏油，此前一天伊朗声称已在波斯湾水域击中四艘商船，并称另有三艘在该地区撞上水雷。
气候变化与环境部在一份声明中说，阿联酋当局“发现一起影响乌姆盖万海滩的油轮漏油”，所指为迪拜以北的一个酋长国。
声明称，“各团队立即开始围堵、警戒、清理和修复……以限制环境影响”，并补充说乌姆盖万的海滩已被关闭。
近几天来，阿联酋北部的许多居民已在社交媒体上报告闻到石油气味，包括迪拜北部地区的居民。
近几周来，在霍尔木兹海峡附近——伊朗与美国冲突核心的关键水道——已报告发生多起针对船只的袭击。
英国海上安全机构UKMTO于10月9日报告，一艘船只在阿联酋海岸附近被抛射物击中，引发火灾，后火势得到控制。据海事安全公司Vanguard称，涉事船只为巴拿马旗油轮GEM NO.2。
伊朗革命卫队周四声称发生了另外七起事件，但迄今为止无一得到证实，特朗普总统指责德黑兰编造袭击船只的事件以推高油价。

沙特在胡塞袭击之际推迟在利雅得举行的联合国峰会
沙特阿拉伯已将其原定下月在利雅得举行的第六届联合国世界数据论坛和第二届沙特统计论坛推迟至2027年。
该王国的总统计机构表示，推迟是为了确保广泛的国际参与。
此前，沙特阿拉伯的“未来投资倡议”（被称为“沙漠达沃斯”）最近也重新安排，在地区紧张局势升级和胡塞武装对该王国的致命袭击中同样被推迟至2027年。
美国驻联合国大使称对伊战争可能再持续一年
美国驻联合国大使迈克·沃尔茨表示，与伊朗的战争可能再拖一年。
在周五发表的《金融时报》采访中，沃尔茨表示，12个月后美国可能仍在进行这场特朗普总统最初称将持续“四到五周”的战争。
沃尔茨告诉《金融时报》，在美国实现其在伊朗的关键目标之前，伊朗必须处置其高浓缩铀，并接受一项“就其国内浓缩活动的有意义的协议”。
“我不会提出假设。人们会希望他们在那之前以有意义的方式坐到谈判桌前，”沃尔茨在谈及再打一年战争的可能性时说。
他补充说，特朗普“和美国海军可以在可预见的未来维持这一（对伊朗港口的）封锁”，并表示政府仍在“收紧”其对伊朗的经济施压行动。
特朗普和以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡已再次发出威胁，将在11月3日美国中期选举后对伊朗发动新的打击。
欧洲及海湾地区外长将讨论霍尔木兹海峡与伊朗冲突
来自欧洲、中东及其他地区的七个国家的外长周五将在伊斯坦布尔举行会谈，重点讨论霍尔木兹海峡和中东相互关联的危机，以及乌克兰战争。
据土耳其外交部消息人士告诉法新社，所谓E3集团——英国、法国和德国——的部长将与新成立的R4集团（由土耳其、沙特阿拉伯、巴基斯坦和埃及组成）的同行会晤，讨论以巴危机、也门局势和霍尔木兹海峡，以及结束俄乌战争的方式。
英国外交大臣埃德·米利班德的办公室表示，会谈将围绕“霍尔木兹海峡和沙特阿拉伯的局势”展开，因为沙特在也门长达十年的内战中支持其陷入困境的政府，而这场内战在美国对伊朗的战争中重新燃起。
“尽管美国和地区伙伴取得了积极进展，但穿越海峡的通行仍面临威胁，该水道的交通量较战前水平大幅下滑，”英国外交部一份声明说。
声明称，米利班德将“倡导以外交解决方案应对危机，恢复完整的航行权利与自由”，并强调“伊朗的战术正在该地区被复制，对沙特阿拉伯的袭击进一步破坏地区稳定，并加大了对曼德海峡和苏伊士运河等重要水道和全球咽喉要道的通行压力”。
“英国正在加紧帮助稳定该地区，本周已承诺派遣皇家空军台风战斗机，在沙特阿拉伯领空防御胡塞武装袭击，”声明补充道。

沙特阿美称经管道绕过霍尔木兹海峡的运量激增
沙特国有石油公司沙特阿美的总裁表示，经由一条绕过霍尔木兹海峡的管道输送的石油量已增加两倍以上；该公司设施数周来反复成为也门伊朗支持的胡塞武装分子的目标。
“东西管道”的运力已从每天200万桶激增至700万桶，总裁兼首席执行官阿明·纳赛尔在接受沙特拥有的Al Arabiya Business电视台采访时说。
该管道建于20世纪80年代初，在伊朗战争期间经霍尔木兹海峡的航运中断之际，对沙特阿拉伯出口石油的能力发挥了关键作用。它将原油从沙特东部波斯湾沿岸的油田和生产设施，输送至这个幅员辽阔王国另一侧的红海沿岸延布石油码头，由此可运往全球市场。
这条路线不像海湾那样只有一个出口，而是有两个可用出口；但胡塞武装也曾威胁并袭击该路线，他们誓言要阻止沙特经红海南部门户曼德海峡的运输。
纳赛尔表示，沙特阿美已使用无人机评估胡塞袭击对基础设施（包括东西管道关键站点）造成的损坏，并协助灭火。

特朗普指责伊朗谎报袭击船只以推高油价
在原油价格触及5月以来最高水平之际，特朗普总统周四指责伊朗谎报对霍尔木兹海峡油轮的袭击，以推高全球能源价格。
“伊朗正在尽其所能地推高油价，赶在美国中期选举之前，”特朗普在Truth Social上写道。“他们甚至在编造虚假的袭击、水雷和一切其他东西，因为现在经霍尔木兹海峡运出的石油比冲突开始前还要多。”
布伦特原油（国际油价基准）周四早间触及每桶112美元，为5月18日以来最高价。
伊朗周四声称已在波斯湾击中四艘船只，这些船只是使用一条德黑兰拒绝、但美国认可的航线穿越霍尔木兹海峡的；伊朗还称另有三艘在使用相同航道后在该地区撞上水雷。所有船只都是在经海峡靠近阿曼海岸的南部航道航行期间或之后受损的，而特朗普政府数周来一直坚称该航道开放通行。
美军已使用该航线护送油轮驶出波斯湾，增加了离开该地区的石油数量，但这是一个代价高昂的过程。尽管近期供应增加，中东整体不稳定仍使能源价格保持高位。

Live Updates: Iran warns that U.S. military not allowed in Gulf "under any circumstance"
Saudis intercept ballistic missile launched by Houthis toward Riyadh, officials say
The Saudi-led coalition fighting Yemen's Houthi militants said early Sunday local time it had downed a ballistic missile launched by the group toward the Saudi capital of Riyadh.
"Air defenses intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile launched by the terrorist Houthi militia toward Riyadh," the coalition posted on X.
Prior to the coalition's statement, an Agence France-Presse journalist reported that three explosions had rung out in Riyadh.
The blasts came after residents received alert messages for a "hostile aerial threat" urging them to stay in a safe place.
Ayatollah meets with head of Iranian judiciary, focuses on compensation for war damage
Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, who has still not been seen in public since the beginning of the war, met with Hujjat al-Islam Mohseni Ejei, the head of Iran's judiciary, to discuss a range of issues on Saturday.
Most interestingly, in connection to the war, a readout of the meeting on X said Iran was committed to "resolutely pursuing compensation for material and moral damages arising from the crimes committed by" the U.S. and Israel.
One of Iran's demands in the past as part of a peace agreement was the U.S. would have to pay to rebuild much of the damage in the country. The demand was dismissed by the U.S.
While not specific, the statement also said they discussed "making the fullest possible use of modern technologies."
Khamenei was injured in a strike on the palace that killed his father, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The strike on the first day of the war also killed the leader's daughter, granddaughter, son-in-law and daughter-in-law. Mojtaba Khamenei survived though he's been in hiding ever since the strike.
Iran remains open to talks with U.S. under Pakistan-brokered deal, envoy says
Iran remains open to talks with the U.S. under a Pakistan-brokered interim deal reached in June to end the conflict, Tehran's ambassador to Islamabad said Saturday, accusing Washington of undermining diplomacy and prolonging the standoff over the Strait of Hormuz.
Ambassador Reza Amiri Moghadam said Iran recently conveyed through Pakistan it was prepared to reopen the Strait of Hormuz if Washington lifted its naval blockade, but accused President Trump of rejecting the proposal by insisting the blockade of Iranian ports would continue.
Pakistan and Qatar helped broker the June agreement, which sought to restore shipping through the strait, lift the U.S. naval blockade and begin negotiations toward a broader deal addressing Iran's nuclear program.
Moghadam, speaking at a seminar in Islamabad, said Iranian officials had conveyed their willingness to reopen the strait during visits to Tehran by Pakistan's army chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, provided Washington ended its blockade.
Moghadam also said Tehran would study the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement that includes Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkey before deciding whether to support it, describing it as a potential instrument for unity. "We will study the Mecca Agreement, and if it is good, we will support it," he said.
Iran president admits many struggling for food as war, sanctions take toll
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Saturday many Iranians were struggling to put food on the table, as economic pressure from the war with the United States mounts.
The U.S. has in recent weeks dialed back military operations in favor of economic pressure, while Iran's leaders have said peace negotiations will only succeed without pressure and threats from Washington as the conflict remains locked in a stalemate.
"There are many people in this society who are struggling to put food on the table because of the war we have found ourselves in, because of the wartime conditions we are living under," Pezeshkian said in a speech shared on his website.
Pezeshkian called for an end to what he described as a "state of neither war nor peace", saying Tehran "must also get out of this situation," without specifying how.
His remarks came as fears of renewed fighting grew. On Friday, U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack said U.S. strikes on Iran could resume as soon as this weekend.
"Could there be a strike this weekend? Absolutely," Barrack told podcast host Mario Nawfal. Barrack, who also serves as Washington's envoy on Syria, does not have a direct role on Iran.

Houthis say they attacked Saudi Arabia, Yemen's Aden after deadly strikes
Yemen's Houthi militant group launched fresh attacks on Saudi Arabia and the seat of Yemen's internationally-recognized government on Saturday after blaming the kingdom for strikes that the Iran-backed group said killed 17 people.
Saudi Arabia and the government it backs in Yemen have come under sustained attacks in recent weeks from the Houthis as a years-long truce broke down in the summer.
Over the past 24 hours, the Yemeni fighters said they targeted three Saudi airports including the international airport in capital Riyadh, energy installations, a pipeline and an air base.
Military spokesman Yahya Saree said the group launched missiles at "King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, the capital of the Saudi enemy, in two phases", the airports in Dammam in the east and Najran in the south.
The international airport on Saturday however said it would resume domestic and international flights "effective Sunday" in a post on X, after it was closed following several deadly attacks this month.
The Houthis also launched attacks on the southern Khamis Mushait air base as well as "crude oil pumping stations and the crude oil pipeline from east to west."
The Saudi civil defense agency said it had also responded to falling debris in the Mecca and Medina regions on Saturday after intercepting two Houthi missiles. The Houthis denied targeting the cities, the two holiest in Islam, calling the Saudi claim a "huge lie."
The Houthis also fired at the southern Yemeni city of Aden, the interim seat of the Saudi-backed government, saying they targeted a naval base and military camp overseen by Saudi forces.
The fresh attack claims came after the Houthis' Al-Masirah TV channel accused the kingdom of separate strikes in Yemen that killed more than a dozen people. Riyadh has not claimed the alleged strikes.
Yemen's civil war, pitting the Iran-backed Houthis against the Saudi-supported and internationally recognized-government, had been dormant since a ceasefire in 2022, but erupted again in July as the wider Middle East war has roiled the region.
State Department updates travel advisories for 14 countries in Middle East
The U.S. State Department has updated travel advisories for 14 countries in the Middle East "to reflect the threat of Iranian-supported Houthi regional aggression."
The advisories also follow the public disclosure of a memo from Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton to Secretary of State Marco Rubio warning of Iranian plots to kill Americans reaching "advanced stages" in the Middle East and elsewhere.
The warnings come as the Trump administration weighs whether to restart military strikes against Iran, and whether to provide air support to Saudi forces confronting the Houthis.
U.S. threats toward Iran "largely for media consumption," IRGC official says
An official with Iran's Revolutionary Guard took a swipe at the U.S. and President Trump's repeated threats, calling them "largely for media consumption" and saying the country is ready if there are renewed hostilities.
"The enemy itself knows better than anyone that it cannot carry out effective operations under current conditions and will certainly fail to achieve its objectives," IRGC spokesperson Brig. Gen. Hossein Mohebbi told semi-official Fars news agency on Saturday.
Mr. Trump has said any possible strikes on Iran will wait until after the U.S. midterm elections on Nov. 3, but he has repeatedly said he could end the war with Iran any time he wants through renewed military action.
Mohebbi said Iran will be ready if the U.S. does return to military strikes.
"Even if the enemy undertakes limited action, Iran's response will be several times greater, given the existing state of readiness and the operational plans of the armed forces," he said.
UAE closes beaches after oil spill from tanker
The United Arab Emirates has closed beaches and warned fishermen to avoid parts of its Gulf shores after an oil spill from a tanker.
The spill impacted the beaches of Umm Al Quwain, one of the seven emirates making up the federation, and cleanup efforts were underway, the Climate Change and Environment Ministry said. Images obtained by AP showed oil washing up along the beach in Umm Al Quwain.
The ministry said the spill poses no health risks but did not provide details about the scale of the leak.
The spill came two weeks after Iran's state-run broadcaster reported an oil tanker had struck a naval mine and caught fire while attempting to transit through the Strait of Hormuz without coordinating with Iran.
Airstrikes kill 9 people in Yemen, including women and children, Houthis say
Two days of strikes on Yemen have killed nine people including women and children, according to the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels.
Two separate strikes killed five people, including a woman and child, in the Yemeni capital of Sanaa on Saturday, according to the Houthi-run Health Ministry.
Also Saturday, the Houthi media center said a wave of strikes struck the coastal city of Mokha in Taiz province, which the Houthis captured in early September. The center didn't provide details on what was struck and The Associated Press couldn't independently verify the Houthi claims.
On Friday, an airstrike killed four people — two women and two children — from the same family when it struck a house in the town of Hiba near the city of Taiz, a hotbed of violence in the country's revived civil war.
The Houthis blamed Saudi Arabia for the strikes, which came as fighting between the kingdom and the Iranian-backed rebels has escalated. Saudi Arabia did not respond to a request for comment.
Saudi forces intercept Houthi missiles targeting oil hub Yanbu, Taif
The Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen announced on Saturday it had intercepted two missiles fired by the Houthis toward Taif and Yanbu, in the kingdom's west.
It came shortly after Riyadh's civil defence agency broadcast warnings of "potential danger" for four western regions, including Taif and Yanbu as well Mecca, home to Islam's holiest city, and Yanbu.
The alerts were all rescinded minutes later.
Residents were instructed to "proceed to the nearest safe place" by the agency. The agency also repeated a legal warning against sharing images or information related to "countering missiles and drones."
The Gulf kingdom has come under repeated attack from Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis in recent weeks as part of the latter country's revived civil war.
Yanbu is a major oil export hub on the Red Sea coast that has allowed Riyadh to bypass Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz for much of its crude exports.
Iran warns U.S. ships would never be allowed in the Gulf
Iran said on Saturday that U.S. ships would never be allowed to enter the Gulf "under any circumstances" and President Trump will "take that dream to his grave".
The remarks came amid mounting US and Israeli threats of renewed attacks on Iran, as U.S. ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack warned that Washington could "absolutely" strike Iran as soon as this weekend.
"We will not allow U.S. military ships in the Persian Gulf under any circumstances and at any time," said Iran's armed forces chief of staff Ali Abdollahi, according to Iranian state television.
"The US president must dream of seeing the armed forces enter the Persian Gulf. He will take that dream to his grave."

Iran has "increased efforts to target U.S. personnel," intel chief warns
Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton warned Friday that Iran has "substantially increased efforts to target U.S. personnel" abroad, with plots to kill Americans reaching "advanced stages" in the Middle East and other countries.
The warning, contained in an unclassified memo that was sent to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and obtained by CBS News, comes as the State Department adjusts staffing at diplomatic posts across the Middle East , and the U.S. military pares back its footprint in the region, amid concerns about direct threats from Iran and threats from the Iranian-backed Houthi movement in Yemen.
"The lethal plotting efforts by the Iranians against U.S. citizens have reached advanced stages in both the Middle East and certain other countries," Clayton wrote.
The memo, which was issued as the Trump administration weighs resuming military strikes against Iran, does not identify specific targets or countries where the alleged plots are underway, or indicate whether attacks may be imminent.
Clayton said the U.S. intelligence community is working to downgrade sensitive intelligence — received through various channels — so it can be shared more broadly with State Department personnel. CIA Director John Ratcliffe was copied on the memo.

U.S. to reduce staffing at 4 embassies in Middle East
The U.S. State Department says it will reduce staffing at four U.S. embassies in the Middle East, not including Saudi Arabia, where nonessential diplomats and family members were ordered to leave earlier this week.
The staffing changes — driven by concerns that Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi militants may escalate rocket, missile and drone attacks around the region — will affect the embassies in Jordan, Lebanon, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, but do not entail an order to leave, the department said.
The embassies involved are all under what is known as "restricted operations" status that has already reduced the size of their personnel footprints. The embassies will remain open.
On Wednesday, a U.S. official and a senior U.S. military official told CBS News that the U.S. military had been quietly reducing its footprint at posts in the Middle East due to ongoing regional threats from the Houthis and direct threats from Iran.

Iranian president to meet with Putin next week in Moscow
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian will travel to Moscow next week for talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said, according to a report by Reuters.
It hasn't been long since Pezeshkian spoke to Putin in person, but this will be the first meeting between the two in Russia during the ongoing war.
The two leaders met with each other on the sidelines of the Caspian Environmental Summit in Turkmenistan on Oct. 8. The two also met at a summit in Kyrgyzstan in September.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov visited Tehran earlier this week as the two sides continue to strengthen relations. Araghchi said Russia and Iran were closer than ever, despite President Trump saying Russia was doing little to help Iran a day prior.
U.N. sounds alarm on besieged Yemen city of Taiz
Time is running out to get aid into Taiz, besieged by pro-Iran Houthi fighters who are preventing supplies from reaching Yemen's third-largest city, the United Nations said Friday.
Houthi fighters have encircled Taiz since early October, blocking the road that links it to Aden, interim capital of the Saudi-backed, internationally recognized government.
"Safe, sustained and unimpeded humanitarian access is urgently needed so that essential supplies and life-saving assistance can reach people in need," said the U.N. humanitarian agency OCHA.
"It's 20 days and counting since Taiz has been cut off," said OCHA spokesman Jens Laerke.
"We are seeing increasingly that the fighting makes it impossible for us to get in and impossible for people to get out," he told a press conference in Geneva.
Laerke said the dwindling water supply was a growing concern, as most residents depended on water brought in by trucks.
"With the roads closed and the diesel to run the trucks very scarce, water production in the city has fallen by about half," he said.
U.S. envoy leaves open possibility of striking Iran this weekend, despite Trump's prior midterm promise
A U.S. official left open the door for the possibility of a strike on Iran this weekend, despite President Trump previously saying there would be none before the midterm elections in less than two weeks.
"Could there be a strike this weekend? Absolutely," Tom Barrack, the U.S. ambassador to Turkey and point man on Syria, who does not have a direct role on Iran policy, told Israeli army radio in response to a question.
"(President Trump) is very clear. He's open and available and accessible to a deal and we've been at the table for months and months and months," Barrack said.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who faces elections Tuesday, in recent days has repeatedly vowed to topple the clerical state in Iran, following two major bombing campaigns against Iran since last year.
Mr. Trump has also signaled an openness to resuming strikes on Iran after a long deadlock in diplomacy although he earlier said it would not happen before midterm elections on Nov. 3.
Earlier Friday, Mr. Trump repeated a common refrain that the U.S. could choose to end the war anytime it wants through a renewed military campaign, but could also let the country "wither" under sanctions.

European, Mideast foreign ministers push peace and diplomacy at Istanbul talks
Foreign ministers from eight European and Middle Eastern countries met in Istanbul on Friday in an unprecedented format, urging diplomacy and peaceful solutions to prevail across the Middle East as well as the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
Ministers from Britain, France, Germany and Italy met counterparts from Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Egypt to discuss Hormuz — a crucial trade route blocked in the Iran war — as well as Yemen and ways to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
At the heart of the talks was the situation in the Straits of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb, which is paralyzing global trade and driving up energy prices as well as the attacks on Saudi Arabia by Houthis from Yemen, allies of Tehran.
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said a new escalation between Iran and the United States "would create nothing but losers and would undoubtedly have very serious consequences for hydrocarbon prices."
"The first thing this group of eight countries ... will do is call on both sides to exercise the utmost restraint, because we cannot afford another escalation in the region," he told journalists.
Italy's Antonio Tajani said the regional problem cannot be solved "from a purely military standpoint."
Wall Street mostly loses ground under pressure from rising oil prices
Stocks slipped Friday on Wall Street under increasing pressure from rising oil prices.
The S&P 500 fell 0.2%, adding to its decline from a day before. The index is on track for a second-straight week of losses. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 550 points, or just over 1%, as of 11:50 a.m. Eastern time.
The Nasdaq composite rose 0.2%, bolstered by gains for several big tech stocks that also helped ease losses elsewhere.
Rising oil prices weighed heavily on the broader market, where three out of every four stocks within the benchmark S&P 500 index fell. The price for a barrel of Brent crude oil rose 3.5% to over $117. It has surged from less than $97 at the start of October and is now at its highest level since March.
Trump says U.S. could take all of Iran's oil: "We could take the whole country"
President Trump delivered a familiar message on Iran as he left the White House for a trip to rally voters in Florida, but also added the U.S. could take all of Iran's oil if we wanted to.
"Iran is not able to do much now. And we could, if we wanted to, just take all of the oil," Mr. Trump said. "We could take the whole country."
"And as you know, the Hormuz Strait is ours, and that's the way we'll keep it," the president added.
Mr. Trump was also asked about U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz saying the war with Iran could drag on for another year , while the president has said for months the war will end "very soon."
"We could end it very quickly," Mr. Trump said. "But Iran is a failing nation. We're taking all the oil out that we want."
"The question is, 'Do we want to finish it off or do we just want to let it wither?' Because we're getting everything we wanted," he said.
Tanker involved in UAE oil spill identified, analysts say
The tanker involved in an oil spill off the coast of the United Arab Emirates has been identified, according to analysts who spoke to the Reuters new agency.
Emirati authorities have not named the vessel, but Martin Kelly, CEO of Orbital Risk Intelligence, told Reuters the oil slick was coming from a vessel called the Gem No. 2.
Another analyst told the news agency that satellite imagery appears to show a large spill coming from the tanker.
"The slick is considerably larger, covering approximately 160 square km (60 square miles), and looks to be coming from the ship," Leon Moreland, a researcher at the Conflict and Environment Observatory, said.
"Furthermore, a slick this close to shore increases the chance it could impact nearby beaches and ecologically sensitive habitats," he said.
The Gem No. 2 was hit by an unidentified projectile 13 nautical miles west of Al Jazeera in the UAE on Oct. 9, shipping sources told Reuters.
No group claimed responsibility for the incident at the time, but maritime security sources told the news agency that it took place outside of the Strait of Hormuz.
Further escalation between Iran and the U.S. "would leave no winners," French foreign minister says
Any further escalation between Iran and the U.S. "would leave no winners," France's foreign minister said Friday.
Speaking to reporters in Istanbul after a meeting with foreign ministers from the U.K., Germany, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, Jean-Noel Barrot said that "a further escalation between Iran and the United States would leave no winners and would likely have very serious consequences for hydrocarbon prices," according to remarks reported by the Reuters news agency.
UAE resident describes smelling gas after oil tanker spill
Residents in the north of the United Arab Emirates have described smelling gas after an oil spill off the country's coastline.
Many Emiratis have reported chemical smells on social media in recent days, including residents in northern districts of Dubai, the largest city in the UAE.
"For the past two days it smelled like 10 gas stations spilled their gas everywhere," a Sharjah resident told the AFP news agency, asking to remain anonymous.
"I was on my balcony and panicked thinking gas was leaking in my house and I will blow up everyone."
Emirati authorities "detected a tanker oil spill affecting Umm Al Quwain's beaches," the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment said in a statement Friday, referring to an emirate north of Dubai.
News of the spill came a day after Iran claimed to have struck four commercial vessels in Persian Gulf waters and said three others had hit sea mines in the region, though President Trump has accused Tehran of making up the incidents to drive up oil prices.

Iranian state TV claims movement of "non-compliant" vessels in Strait of Hormuz completely halted
Iranian state TV claimed Friday, citing an unnamed source close to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy, that all movement of "non-compliant" vessels through the Strait of Hormuz had been completely halted following a series of Iranian attacks on ships and navigational support systems.
The report cited the source as saying that if U.S. military escorts and ship-to-ship transfers - all of which the Iranian regime refers to as "oil smuggling" - resumes, action against the vessels and technical systems supporting them will be "much more forceful."
Iran has repeatedly warned commercial ships not to use the long-established shipping lanes through the strait, through which about 20% of global oil supplies passed before the war. Tehran demands that all vessels seek authorization and use a northern route, close to its coast, and it has attacked ships for months that refuse.
The Trump administration, however, has encouraged shippers to use an alternative southern route, close to Oman, to avoid Iranian tolls.
Iran claimed Thursday to have struck four ships that used that route, and said three others hit sea mines in the U.S.-designated shipping lanes.
President Trump on Thursday dismissed Iranian claims about striking vessels as lies aimed at increasing global oil prices ahead of the looming U.S. midterm elections.
Both Iran and the U.S. have claimed at various times during the war to have completely halted traffic that violates their respective blockades of the waterway.
Iran's foreign minister calls Israel's relationship with the U.S. "parasitic"
Iran's foreign minister has called Israel's relationship with the United States "parasitic," citing alleged American taxpayer funding for missile defense in Israel.
"The U.S. has over the past three years spent $11 BILLION in taxpayer money on missile defense for Israel," Abbas Araghchi wrote Friday in a post on X , citing calculations by independent policy analyst Stephen Semler, who said he arrived at the number using Pentagon budget documents, media reports, and open-source intelligence.
CBS News has not been able to independently verify the figures.
Semler is the founder of the Security Policy Reform Institute, a think tank that, according to its website, is "driven by empiricism and guided by progressive values" to promote "the meaningful reform of U.S. foreign policy to break the cycle of endless war and serve the most pressing economic, social, and political needs of working-class Americans."
Araghchi also said the U.S. had "fired more interceptors defending Israel than Israel has," a claim supported by a Washington Post story from May that cited U.S. Defense Department data and U.S. officials.
"That is not a symbiotic relationship," Araghchi said. "It is a parasitic one."
UAE reports oil spill from tanker
The United Arab Emirates reported an oil spill from a tanker off its coast Friday, a day after Iran claimed to have struck four commercial vessels in Persian Gulf waters and said three others had hit sea mines in the region.
Emirati authorities "detected a tanker oil spill affecting Umm Al Quwain's beaches," the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment said in a statement, referring to an emirate north of Dubai.
It said "teams immediately began containment, cordoning, clean-up and remediation ... to limit environmental impacts," adding that Umm Al Quwain beaches had been closed.
Many residents in the north of the UAE have reported oil smells on social media in recent days, including residents in northern districts of Dubai.
Frequent attacks on ships have been reported in recent weeks near the Strait of Hormuz, the vital waterway at the heart of the conflict between Iran and the United States.
The British maritime security UKMTO reported on Oct. 9 that a vessel was hit by a projectile off the UAE coast, causing a fire that was later brought under control. According to the maritime security company Vanguard, the vessel in question was the Panama-flagged oil tanker GEM NO.2.
Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed the seven additional incidents on Thursday, but none have been corroborated thus far, and President Trump accused Tehran of inventing strikes on ships to drive up oil prices.

Saudi Arabia postpones U.N. summit in Riyadh amid Houthi strikes
Saudi Arabia has postponed the sixth U.N. World Data Forum and the second Saudi Statistical Forum, which had been scheduled to take place in Riyadh next month, until 2027.
The kingdom's General Authority for Statistics said the delay was intended to ensure broad international participation.
It comes after the recent rescheduling of Saudi Arabia's Future Investment Initiative, known as "Davos in the Desert," which was also pushed back to 2027 amid escalating regional tension and deadly Houthi attacks on the kingdom .
U.S. ambassador to the U.N. says Iran war could last another year
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz has said the war with Iran could drag on for another year.
In an interview with the Financial Times published Friday, Waltz said the U.S. could still be fighting the war President Trump initially said would last " four to five weeks " 12 months from now.
Waltz told the FT the U.S. will not have achieved its key goals in Iran until the country disposes of its highly enriched uranium and accepts a "meaningful agreement on their domestic enrichment."
"I'm not going to put out hypotheticals. One would hope that they'll come to the table in a meaningful way before that," Waltz said, referring to the possibility of another year of war.
He added that Mr. Trump "and the U.S. Navy can maintain this blockade [on Iranian ports] for the foreseeable future," and said the administration was still "tightening" its economic pressure campaign against Iran.
Mr. Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have renewed their threats to launch new strikes on Iran after the U.S. midterm elections on Nov. 3.
Foreign ministers from Europe and Gulf region to discuss Strait of Hormuz and Iran conflict
Foreign ministers from seven nations in Europe, the Middle East and elsewhere will hold talks in Istanbul Friday focused on the Strait of Hormuz and the interlinked crises in the Middle East, as well as the Ukraine war.
Ministers from the so-called E3 group – Britain, France and Germany – will meet counterparts from the newly created R4 group, composed of Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Egypt, to discuss the Israel-Palestinian crisis, developments in Yemen and the Strait of Hormuz, and ways to end the Russia-Ukraine war, a Turkish foreign ministry source told AFP.
British Foreign Minister Ed Miliband's office said the talks would revolve around "the Strait of Hormuz and the situation in Saudi Arabia," as the Saudis back Yemen's beleaguered government in its decade-long civil war, which has flared up amid the U.S. war on Iran.
"Despite positive progress from the U.S. and regional partners, passage through the Strait remains under threat, with traffic through the waterway sharply down on pre-war levels," a U.K. foreign ministry statement said.
It said Miliband would "advocate for a diplomatic solution to the crisis that restores full navigational rights and freedoms" and stress "how Iranian tactics are being replicated across the region, with attacks on Saudi Arabia further destabilizing the region and increasing pressure on vital waterways and global chokepoints, such as Bab el-Mandeb and the Suez Canal."
"The U.K. is stepping up to help stabilize the region, having this week committed RAF Typhoons to defend Saudi Arabia from Houthi attacks in their airspace," it added.

Saudi Aramco says volume bypassing Strait of Hormuz via pipeline has surged
The president of Saudi state-owned oil company Saudi Aramco, whose facilities have been targeted by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi militants repeatedly for weeks, says the amount of oil moving through a pipeline that bypasses the Strait of Hormuz has more than tripled.
The East-West pipeline's capacity has surged from 2 million to 7 million barrels each day, President and CEO Amin Nasser said in an interview with Saudi-owned television Al Arabiya Business.
Built in the early 1980s, the pipeline has played a crucial role in Saudi Arabia's ability to export oil amid disruption to shipping via the Strait of Hormuz during the Iran war. It carries crude from Saudi oil fields and production facilities in the east, on the Persian Gulf, to the Yanbu oil terminal on the Saudi Red Sea coast on the other side of the vast kingdom, from which it can be shipped to global markets.
That route, which, unlike the Gulf, has two available exits, has also been threatened and attacked by the Houthis, who have vowed to stop Saudi shipments via the Red Sea's southern gateway, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
Nasser said Saudi Aramco has used drones to assess damage caused to infrastructure, including sites key to the East-West pipeline, by Houthi attacks, and to help with firefighting.

Trump accuses Iran of lying about strikes on ships to drive up oil prices
As crude oil prices hit their highest levels since May, President Trump accused Iran on Thursday of lying about attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz to drive up global energy prices.
"Iran is doing everything they can to drive up the price of Oil prior to the U.S. Midterm Election," Mr. Trump wrote on Truth Social . "They are even making up fake hits, mines, and everything else, because more Oil is coming through the Hormuz Strait now than it did even prior to the beginning of the Conflict."
Brent crude, the international standard for oil, hit $112 a barrel Thursday morning, its highest price since May 18.
Iran claimed to have struck four vessels in the Persian Gulf Thursday after they transited the Strait of Hormuz using a U.S.-endorsed route that Tehran rejects, and it said three others hit sea mines in the region after using the same shipping lanes. All of the ships were damaged along or after using southern shipping lanes in the strait near the Omani coast, which the Trump administration has insisted for weeks is open to traffic.
The U.S. military has escorted tankers out of the Persian Gulf using that route, boosting the quantity of oil leaving the region, but it is a costly process. Overall instability in the Middle East has kept energy prices high despite the recently increased supplies.
