Lebanon

Brent has fallen 30.9% from its April war peak as deal headlines land and open interest flees. The physical strait is not back: visible tanker traffic is near three a day, many ships are dark, and the IRGC still has a tollbooth-shaped shadow.

The draft US-Iran memorandum now has terms, a Sunday signing claim, and an uppercase promise of open water. Iran says no final decision has been made, and Israel's strike in Beirut gave Tehran's skeptics a reason to slow the pen.

Iran wants Lebanon's war ended as part of the deal. Israel — which isn't even at the table — says it won't stop and won't pull back. That gap is where a weekend signature could die.
