The day was defined by the escalating Iran crisis, with the US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz dominating coverage from morning to night. Early reports from BFMTV and France TV Info detailed Trump's threat of a multi-month blockade, causing oil prices to surge past €120 per barrel. Iran's president and supreme leader defiantly called the blockade 'voued to failure' and a 'shameful defeat' for the US. By afternoon, TotalEnergies extended fuel price caps 'as long as the crisis lasts,' while the government assured no shortages. The UAE's exit from OPEC, reported by Valeurs Actuelles, signaled a reshaping of global oil order. Amid the crisis, a bus fell into the Seine in Essonne, a 15-year-old was arrested for the ANTS data breach, and the Conseil d'État confirmed the dissolution of the antifascist group La Jeune Garde. In the evening, a child abuse case in Lucenay with 34 victims emerged, and France's PM announced €200 million for cybersecurity.
