PDB Afternoon Bulletin | May 5th, 2026: U.S. Opens Hormuz Shipping Lane Despite Iran Attacks & Russia and Ukraine Announce “Ceasefires"

Season 2 Episode 1374 Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:

  • First up—the United States begins to make headway in the Strait of Hormuz, successfully opening a narrow, protected corridor for commercial ships despite Iranian attacks. But with Tehran continuing to test the limits, the question is how long that fragile pathway can remain open.
  • Later in the show—Russia and Ukraine both signal a temporary ceasefire ahead of Victory Day, but conflicting timelines and mixed messaging are already casting doubt on whether any pause in the fighting will actually take hold.
