August 1st - According to CBS News, citing multiple sources, the United States and Israel are planning "one of the most intense bombing campaigns to date" against Iranian energy infrastructure, potentially targeting power plants and oil refineries, with the operation possibly lasting throughout the weekend. Sources say Israel has been notified and is coordinating with the US, but Trump has not yet issued final approval. The report notes that the plan was proposed at Trumps cabinet meeting at Camp David on Friday, and some White House political aides strongly opposed it, fearing the operation could impact the US and global economy. Trump stated, "Were going to hit them very hard." The US has also discussed cutting off Tehrans power supply, but no decision has been made. Previously, Trump stated that for every attack on ships in the Strait of Hormuz, the US would bomb an Iranian bridge or power plant. If this operation is carried out, it would mean Israel has resumed military operations that were previously suspended due to a US-mediated ceasefire.August 1st - According to Irans Tasnim News Agency, the Houthi rebels in Yemen stated that, in order to implement their strategy of "blockade against blockade," eight Saudi oil tankers have been forced to change course and circle the Cape of Good Hope after maritime restrictions were imposed on them.

According to an internal document acquired by Reuters on Tuesday, General Electric Co. has selected Mavi Zingoni as the leader of its power unit, which comprises its gas, steam, and nuclear power operations.


Zingoni, the executive managing director of client and low carbon generating business for the Spanish energy company Repsol (OTC:REPYY), will take over on January 1 and relocate to the United States. She will report to Scott Strazik, who leads the energy businesses of the corporation.


GE did not respond to a comment request.


Zingoni joins as the industrial behemoth prepares to divide into three public companies.


In January, GE intends to separate its healthcare business. In 2024, it will separate its energy division into a new company that incorporates power, renewable energy, and digital components.


Zingoni has the difficulty of directing GE's power division in the face of supply chain and inflationary issues.


The company's electrical segment, which accounted for 23% of sales last year, is one of its most troubled. It has not reported an increase in revenue for years.


The unit observed a reduction in orders throughout the first half of this year. The company expects to earn a profit this year, with revenue growth in the low single digits.
