Israeli forces meanwhile began operating beyond their 'Yellow Line' inside southern Lebanon, where an airstrike on the Bekaa Valley killed 12 people. Brent crude rose 3 percent on renewed uncertainty over the Strait of Hormuz.

Turkish police storm CHP headquarters and block opposition rally after court ousts leader Ozel
Turkish riot police stormed the headquarters of the main opposition CHP in Ankara and forced out leader Ozgur Ozel, days after an Ankara appeals court annulled the party's 2023 congress and reinstated his predecessor, Kemal Kilicdaroglu. On Tuesday, police used water cannon and pepper spray to block a rally Ozel had called in Izmir.
