    The decapitation strategy to take out the Islamic Republic’s leadership: is it working? The first-ever strike on Iran’s natural gas infrastructure: where could that lead the next phase of the war? Lebanon, Hezbollah, and Iran’s other proxies: how far will this war spread?

With tanker traffic collapsing and oil prices surging above $100 amid the conflict, the conversation looks at how this crisis could reshape Gulf economies, global trade, and the geopolitical balance far beyond the region.
