Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.

On today's podcast:

(1) The Pentagon is deploying an additional aircraft carrier and 10,000 sailors and Marines to the Persian Gulf, according to a US official, a move that gives American commanders more options if President Donald Trump chooses to escalate attacks on Iran.

(2) The Trump administration is ramping up pressure on the European Union to release diesel stockpiles, a move seen potentially averting a ban on US exports of the critical fuel.

(3) UK police said they arrested a sixth man, a British-Iranian dual national, in relation to an incident near an airbase used by the US to launch strikes on Iran.

(4) The 10-year French bond yield risks rising toward 7% if concerns over the nation’s debt sustainability worsens, according to Fivestar Asset Management in Tokyo.

(5) UK Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healey will meet banking executives next week, as the sector braces for potential tax hikes in his budget later this month.

(6) Chancellor Friedrich Merz said the far-right Alternative for Germany is backed by Russia, stepping up his rhetoric against the ascendant opposition party that won two regional elections last month and leads in all major national polls.
