SUMMARY: Following Iran’s missile attack on Israel, President Biden announced discussions with world leaders to coordinate a response, which will include new sanctions. Israel has vowed a proportional retaliation against Iran, with all parties agreeing on Israel’s right to respond. The attack caused minimal damage, and video footage shows US naval destroyers intercepting missiles. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin reaffirmed the US commitment to protect its personnel and allies in the region against Iranian threats. Middle East Institute’s Brian Culas anticipates that Israel may respond with targeted strikes, similar to its actions after Iran’s previous attacks.

SUMMARY: Members of the International Longshoremen’s Association are advocating for better pay and job security, opposing increased automation that threatens dock workers’ positions. They highlight the essential role of dock workers in the economy, as around 10-15% of goods in the U.S. are imported, creating a significant reliance on global products. The potential strike’s impact on imports and exports varies; a short strike may go unnoticed by consumers, but a prolonged one could bottleneck goods, especially through key ports like New Orleans, affecting overall supply chains significantly. The duration of the strike will ultimately determine its economic effects.
