On March 24th, according to foreign media reports, the conflict between Iran and the US/Israel continues unabated. Simultaneously, Trump has claimed that negotiations aimed at ending this conflict are underway. Iran launched missile and drone attacks overnight on Israeli cities such as Eilat, Dimona, and Tel Aviv, as well as US military bases in the Middle East. Saudi Arabia stated it intercepted a drone in its eastern region, while Kuwait reported that some power lines ceased operation following Iran's attack. Alarms also sounded in Bahrain.
According to Iran's Fars News, attacks by the US and Israel caused damage to a natural gas pressure regulating station and an administrative building in the central Iranian city of Isfahan. Additionally, a pipeline supplying natural gas to the Khorramshahr combined cycle power plant in southwestern Iran was attacked. The strikes continue following Trump's decision to postpone an attack on Iran's energy infrastructure. (Jins10)

On March 24, Mohsen Rezaei, the new military advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader, emphasized in an interview broadcast by Iran's state television on March 23 that Iran will only cease hostilities once it receives all reparations, all economic sanctions are lifted, and international legal guarantees are provided against US interference in Iran's affairs. Rezaei also stressed that the dispute between Iran and the United States is not solely about the current conflict or the US-Israeli attacks on Iran last June, but rather a 47-year confrontation that has persisted since the victory of the Iranian Islamic Revolution in 1979, and it "must be brought to an end."

On March 24th, as tensions in the Middle East continue to escalate, Pakistan is actively pursuing diplomatic mediation, attempting to build a communication bridge between the United States and Iran. Sources familiar with the matter revealed that Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff, Asim Munir, has spoken with President Trump to discuss potential solutions for de-escalating the conflict. It is understood that Pakistan is working to position its capital, Islamabad, as a venue for negotiations, with US Special Envoy for Iran, Steve Witkoff, playing a key role in the mediation process. Multiple reports also suggest that potential participants in these talks could include high-ranking officials such as Jared Kushner and the US Vice President. Previously, Trump stated that he had postponed strikes on Iran's energy infrastructure following "productive dialogue" with Iran. However, Iranian officials continue to deny direct negotiations, only stating that they are evaluating messages conveyed through intermediaries. Pakistan, meanwhile, is conducting multi-pronged diplomacy. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has spoken with the Iranian President, expressing support and calling for de-escalation. High-ranking military officials have also been in intensive contact with Saudi Arabia to strengthen regional coordination. Analysts believe that Pakistan's current active involvement stems not only from its long-standing relationships within its network with Iran and Saudi Arabia but also from its own energy security considerations. With shipping disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz impacting approximately one-fifth of global oil and gas transport, Pakistan's energy imports are highly dependent on the Gulf region, and it is already facing pressure from natural gas shortages.

On March 24th, a report by Berry, a global strategist at the Australian banking group Macquarie, stated that it is too early to harbor excessive expectations for the imminent conclusion of a "peace agreement" in the Middle East within the next few days, as the demands of both sides appear difficult to reconcile. The idea of the United States abandoning its demands regarding Iran's nuclear assets, or the U.S. simply withdrawing its bases in the Gulf region, is deemed too unrealistic. At this stage, it is also unlikely to see Iran abandon its support for its proxy forces. However, the conflict is unlikely to persist beyond mid-April, as Iran's threat is likely to be neutralized by then. Once the threat is eliminated, the United States will hold an advantageous position in any subsequent negotiations. (JIN10)

According to 1M AI News monitoring, SoftBank's SB Energy has leased federal land from the U.S. Department of Energy in Piketon, Ohio, to construct a 10GW data center campus named PORTS Technology Campus. The site was formerly the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant, used for enriching uranium for nuclear weapons. SB Energy will simultaneously build 10GW of new power generation capacity, with at least 9.2GW being natural gas-fired. They have also reached a $4.2 billion agreement with American Electric Power Ohio to upgrade southern Ohio's electricity transmission infrastructure, with power expected to be connected by 2029. SB Energy has pledged to fund the accelerated cleanup of residual nuclear contamination at the site. The project is supported by a Japanese-American consortium, with participants including Hitachi, Mitsubishi Electric, Toshiba, TDK, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Bechtel, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan Chase. On the same site, nuclear developer Oklo is partnering with Centrus Energy to build a uranium processing facility, and Meta has also selected the location to plan a nuclear power park with a target of up to 1.2GW.

On March 24, according to Xinhua News Agency, citing multiple data sources, the Strait of Hormuz has suffered a severe blow to its shipping traffic amid the escalating US-Iran conflict. Data from market service agencies indicates that the number of merchant ships passing through the strait since March has plummeted by approximately 95% compared to the pre-conflict period, significantly disrupting the global energy transportation system. Specifically, from March 1 to March 23, a total of only 144 merchant ships passed through, far below the pre-conflict daily average of about 138 vessels. Of these, 91 were oil and natural gas tankers, with most choosing to divert eastward towards Asian markets. Concurrently, some liquefied natural gas (LNG) tankers originally bound for Europe have rerouted to Asian regions where spot prices are higher, reflecting a rapid adjustment in supply and demand structures. The route structure has also changed. Currently, ships passing through the strait are primarily concentrated on a northern route located north of Iran's Larak Island. This route is considered a "safe corridor" designated by Iran and is visually monitored and cleared by relevant forces. British shipping media have also confirmed that over 20 vessels have opted to use this route. From a supply perspective, JPMorgan Chase analysis points out that among observable oil shipments, Iranian crude oil accounts for as high as 98%, with transportation volumes in early March averaging around 1.3 million barrels per day, indicating a high concentration of regional energy flows from specific sources. As one of the world's most critical energy transport routes, the Strait of Hormuz handles approximately one-quarter of global seaborne oil trade and about one-fifth of liquefied natural gas transport. Data from the US Energy Information Administration shows that oil transported through the strait in 2024 averaged around 20 million barrels per day. With current transit disruptions, the stability of the global oil and gas supply chain and the risk of price volatility have significantly increased.
