U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine has reportedly advised senior White House officials to pursue an 'off-ramp' to de-escalate the ongoing conflict with Iran. Caine cautioned that continued military escalation, specifically relying on airpower, carries a significant risk of backfiring and exceeding the current limits of U.S. military capabilities.

Simultaneously, reports indicate that Iran and Oman are nearing a potential agreement regarding the Strait of Hormuz. While some observers link these diplomatic efforts to the broader regional tensions, Iranian officials have publicly stated that their negotiations with Muscat are independent of the status of the waterway.
