On the geopolitical front, military strikes launched by the United States and Israel against Iran have entered their 11th day. Iranian media widely suggest that, given the current progression of hostilities, Iran will continue to organize effective counterattacks against the aggressors and is prepared for a prolonged war.

On the evening of March 9 local time, former President Trump stated that strikes against Iran would end "soon," but not within the current week. He also mentioned that, due to market turmoil caused by the attacks, he would lift some oil-related sanctions to stabilize oil prices. However, he is still considering measures to control the strategic Strait of Hormuz.
