U.S. Energy Secretary: Washington prefers diplomatic dialogue with Iran, but will destroy Tehrans nuclear facilities "if necessary".Nepalese police: Floods have killed at least 157 people.August 27th - According to sources, US allies privately assess that the Strait of Hormuz likely still contains mines. While the US has made some progress in clearing mines in international waters, it is estimated that not all of the 80 to 150 mines laid by Iran have been cleared, and some may have drifted away with the currents. Trump has recently claimed that all mines in the strait have been cleared, stating that the Strait of Hormuz is a "perfectly functioning strait." The US Central Command declined to comment on estimates of the number of mines in the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday. Analysts believe the possibility of all mines being cleared is "extremely low." Even if the mine threat has decreased, many merchant ships remain within range of Iranian drones and short-range missiles, and many vessels are beyond the coverage of US air defense systems. The International Maritime Organization also stated that it has no definitive information on the clearing of mines and urged ships to exercise maximum caution. Iran claims that only Iran knows the location of the mines and has warned that US mine-clearing vessels could become targets. Currently, Iran and Oman have discussed establishing a "temporary joint maritime corridor" and a mine clearance project; Britain and France are also planning mine clearance and shipping support operations after the ceasefire.A spokesperson for the European Commission said the Commission is in communication with Meta Platforms (META.O) regarding the preliminary finding that its "addictive design" violates the Digital Services Act (DSA).A spokesperson for the European Commission said: The Commission will not comment on the settlement of Meta Platforms (META.O) in the United States.

Voyager Digital Holdings Inc., a cryptocurrency company, has been granted permission by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York to restore $270 million in client funds, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.


Voyager Digital Holdings Inc., a cryptocurrency company, has been granted permission by the US Bankruptcy Court in New York to restore $270 million in client funds, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.


According to the Journal, Judge Michael Wiles, who is in charge of Voyager's bankruptcy, said the firm had "sufficient grounds" to back up its claim that clients should be given access to the custodial account kept at Metropolitan Commercial Bank.


The business did not immediately respond to requests for comment.


Voyager, one of several businesses that struggled after the widespread turbulence on the cryptocurrency market, filed for Chapter 11 last month.


Voyager reported that it had between $1 billion and $10 billion in assets and liabilities, as well as over 100,000 creditors, in its bankruptcy case.


The Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp (FDIC) issued an injunction to the firm last week directing it to stop making "false and misleading" promises about the government's protection of its clients' cash.


The firm only had a bank account at Metropolitan Commercial Bank, according to the authorities, and none of the investors using its platform were covered by the FDIC.


During the COVID-19 epidemic, cryptocurrency lenders like Voyager saw a surge in business, luring depositors with high interest rates and convenient access to loans that conventional banks seldom ever gave. Lenders have suffered from the recent decline in cryptocurrency markets, which was brought on by the failure of two significant tokens in May.
