The State Department has issued a worldwide caution for travelers amid Iran-linked threats, and tens of thousands of Americans have been evacuated from the region. Bahrain has drafted a U.N. Security Council resolution invoking Chapter Seven to authorize "all necessary means" to keep the Strait of Hormuz open and demand Iran cease attacks on shipping, but China and Russia oppose that text while France has offered a rival resolution urging de‑escalation; the U.S. position is not explicit, though U.N. envoy Mike Waltz has emphasized regional leadership, leaving the Council divided over potential use of force.
