2. US labels PCC and CV as terrorist organisations

   The United States government has formally designated two Brazilian criminal groups, the PCC and CV, as foreign terrorist organisations. The move carries legal consequences for any entity that conducts financial transactions with either group. Brazilian fintechs linked to the PCC reportedly moved around 26 billion reais, with one Faria Lima firm alone handling over one billion reais in cash. Brazilian banks, payment platforms, and Pix users now face heightened compliance demands, and the designation introduces diplomatic friction between Brasília and Washington.

   "A Faria Lima fintech moved more than one billion reais in cash alone in a scheme involving the PCC, according to Brazil's Federal Revenue Service."

9. Putin withholds comment on drone entering Romania

   Russian President Vladimir Putin said it is too early to determine whether a drone that entered Romanian airspace belonged to Russia. Romania is a NATO member, meaning any confirmed violation of its airspace carries alliance-wide implications. Putin's non-denial leaves the incident unresolved and places the burden of investigation on Romanian and NATO authorities.

   "It is too early to say whether the drone that entered Romania was Russian."

10. US and Iran Exchange Strikes in Persian Gulf

    US and Iranian forces carried out mutual strikes in the Persian Gulf, with Iranian state television claiming a US aircraft was destroyed — a claim the White House has not confirmed. The exchange puts additional pressure on ongoing diplomatic efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and reach a ceasefire. Negotiators on both sides, along with regional parties dependent on the strait for trade, now face a more difficult path to agreement.

    "Attacks between the US and Iran further threaten negotiations to reopen Hormuz and end the war."
