The global oil market is on the brink of crisis, with International Energy Agency executive director Fatih Birol warning that oil stocks may enter the 'red zone' by July and August due to a significant drop in fresh oil exports from West Asia. This situation is exacerbated by ongoing geopolitical tensions, particularly related to the Strait of Hormuz. In a separate development, Israel announced the deportation of foreign activists captured during their attempt to reach Gaza, following widespread condemnation of their treatment while in custody. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump confirmed the deployment of an additional 5,000 troops to Poland, reinforcing military ties with the country amidst rising tensions in the region. The Democratic Party has released a delayed autopsy report on its 2024 election defeat, which has drawn criticism for overlooking critical issues such as the situation in Gaza and President Joe Biden's age. Additionally, Meta has reached a settlement in a lawsuit with a Kentucky school district over allegations that its platforms contribute to addictive behaviors in children. In violence-related news, at least 19 people were killed in Honduras amid gang conflicts over control of drug trafficking routes.
