WASHINGTON — The U.S. military said it destroyed five Iranian oil tankers on Tuesday in response to the latest attacks on its warships and Tehran hit back at American targets in Jordan, the latest burst of back-and-forth strikes that have lurched the sides back toward open hostilities in a more than 6-month-old war.来源 4

Following the American strikes, Iran launched missiles toward U.S. targets in Jordan, Iranian state-run media said. Jordan's military said its air defense systems intercepted 18 ballistic missiles launched toward its territory and two others fell in places where no one lives. It said it has no reports of casualties. Jordan is a staunch U.S. ally that hosts American forces, making the kingdom's military bases a target of repeat Iranian strikes.

Ship traffic across the Bab Al Mandeb strait plunged on Thursday after the Houthis seized the key port city of Mokha on Yemen’s west coast, while the number of vessels in the Strait of Hormuz also remains low after renewed attacks. Only six vessels crossed the Bab Al Mandeb as of 3.14pm UAE time, down from 30 on Wednesday, 26 on Tuesday and 29 on Monday, preliminary data from Kpler shows. Of those six, five exited the Red Sea carrying grain, crude, coal and fertiliser, while one entered. Iran-backed Houthi militants further expanded their control of the Red Sea area and Bab Al Mandeb shipping route after taking Mokha after days of fighting against pro-government forces. The Yemen-based group previously announced a “maritime embargo” against Saudi Arabia and has been attacking ships carrying Opec members' crude. The strait is critical for the export of crude from Saudi Arabia to Asian markets. The Saudis have been rerouting tankers through the Mediterranean following a spate of Houthi attacks. Meanwhile, only two ships transited the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday, Kpler said. Vessel transits across the strait fell to their lowest level for the month on Wednesday, as the US and Iran traded attacks on ships. Only nine commodity vessels transited the channel, down from 12 on Tuesday and 20 on Monday, preliminary data from Kpler found. Of the nine, six exited Gulf waters while the others sailed in the opposite direction. Most ships went dark by switching off transponders so they cannot be detected. Among the ships to exit the Gulf on Wednesday were two very large crude carriers each with about two million barrels of crude. Their destinations were not known. One fertiliser-laden vessel also exited the Gulf. The latest data comes as the US and Iran intensify attacks on tankers in the Arabian Gulf, with US Central Command revealing on Wednesday that it “destroyed five Iranian crude oil carriers”. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, meanwhile, said it inflicted “extensive damage” to two US warships, eight oil tankers and 10 other vessels, without providing details. The latest escalation between the two sides has caused oil prices to surge past $100 per barrel for the first time since July over concerns pertaining to the flow of oil from the Strait of Hormuz. Brent, the benchmark for two thirds of the world's oil, was trading 2.55 per cent higher at $103.80 per barrel at 4:15pm UAE time on Thursday, with WTI up nearly 3 per cent at $98.89 per barrel. The waterway used to transport more than 20 million barrels of oil per day before the war broke out in February, with more than 100 ships crossing every day. Current estimates are around 10 million bpd. “Over the past week, US forces struck more tankers in the Arabian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz than in the previous four months combined,” said Valentin d'Hauthuille, Middle East Analyst at Acled, a non-profit group specialising in conflict data. “Since September 1, US forces have attacked 10 tankers. That compares with 12 vessels attacked sporadically over the previous four months.” The latest attacks were sparked by a new “tanker-for-tanker” policy devised by US President Donald Trump's administration, which is purportedly aimed at deterring Iranian attacks on ships carrying oil. The International Maritime Organisation's latest list, updated on September 8, records 73 confirmed vessel attacks since the conflict began, with 21 seafarer deaths. Asked whether the number of attacks on ships on Wednesday was a daily record, Ana Subasic, trade risk analyst at Kpler, said the previous highest single-day count was five on March 11. “So, yesterday could ultimately exceed that but it is too early to say on a confirmed basis,” she said. There are currently 514 commercial vessels stuck in the Arabian Gulf as of Thursday, according to Kpler analysis.来源 2

Push comes a day after International Atomic Energy Agency board voted to refer Tehran to Security Council over nuclear non-compliance来源 1
原文位置 135–3317
Russia and China on Thursday opposed a UN Security Council call for the full resumption of the committee overseeing sanctions on Iran, urging Tehran to give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium. The push came a day after the International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA) Board of Governors voted to refer Iran to the Security Council over its nuclear non-compliance, intensifying international pressure on Tehran over its nuclear programme. Russia rejected the effort to revive the committee, with its envoy Vasily Nebenzya stating that Moscow “won't allow sanctions on Tehran to be reimposed under any circumstances” and accusing Western powers of distorting facts surrounding Iran's nuclear programme. “The Russian Federation categorically repudiates attempts to manipulate the authority of the Security Council to settle political scores with Tehran,” Mr Nebenzya said. “Such irresponsible actions make the prospect of a negotiated solution a more far-off prospect.” The Security Council established the 1737 Sanctions Committee in 2006 to oversee sanctions imposed over Iran's nuclear programme. It became defunct following the 2015 nuclear agreement. The committee was formally restored following the reimposition of UN sanctions last year, but has remained largely paralysed by a dispute with Russia and China over the legality of the sanctions snapback. It currently has no chair and its panel of experts has not been reconstituted. Britain's ambassador Sarah MacIntosh said all UN member states were required to implement sanctions resolutions on Iran, including an arms embargo. “Our UN Charter requires the full implementation of all sanctions resolutions, including the arms embargo,” Ms MacIntosh told the council. “All member states, including Iran, are obliged to implement these Chapter 7 resolutions without exception.” She added that the committee must deliver on its mandate and called for the prompt appointment of a chair and members of the panel of experts. Ms MacIntosh said Iran had not given IAEA inspectors access to nuclear sites since June 2025 and urged Tehran to “choose” diplomacy. “Iran should address the international community's long-standing concerns over her nuclear programme by returning to negotiations, co-operating fully with the IAEA, and restoring full transparency on her nuclear programme,” she said. US representative for special political affairs Jennifer Loretta said Washington “will look to partners in the coming days to weigh options to ensure that there is sufficient infrastructure in place to support that goal”. Bahrain called on council members to work constructively and urgently to reach a consensus on the appointment of the members of the panel of experts. “The kingdom of Bahrain and a number of countries in the region have been directly subjected to the consequences of Iran's launch of ballistic missiles and drones, the targeting of civilians, civilian objects, critical infrastructure and energy facilities, as well as threats to the security and safety of navigation and international maritime routes. Highly sensitive facilities were also exposed to serious risk,” said its ambassador, Jamal Fares Alrowaiei.来源 1
Anthropic on Thursday (Sep 10) said it had disrupted several alleged malicious uses of its Claude models over the past eight months, including a suspected Russia-linked cyber espionage campaign and efforts by Chinese AI firms it accused of trying to extract and replicate Claude's capabilities.来源 2

原文位置 105–3317
A report from Anthropic released on Thursday details several incidents in which people used the company's AI models "in ways that could support biological weapons development", among other things. The company's decision to release the report comes after several high-profile incidents related to AI models led to concern about whether they were becoming too powerful and a risk to public safety. The report "covers how people tried to misuse Claude – for cyber attacks, influence operations, surveillance, biology, and building weapons – and how we found and stopped them". Anthropic said it was able to disrupt every operation mentioned, and that it had made sure to keep track of lessons learnt with hopes of bolstering the company's protection. One of the examples Anthropic highlighted involved a prompt entered into the company's Claude tool that sought assistance with a grant application to research the chikungunya virus. "Chikungunya virus is a mosquito-borne virus that causes debilitating symptoms (such as severe pain and fever) that can last for weeks or months, and has no licensed therapeutic," the report read. "One of the reasons we were inclined to think this research was less innocuous was that the institutional affiliation associated with the grant was also a cause of concern." The report did not elaborate on the institutional affiliation. The AI company said it has several internal checks for dealing with potentially problematic prompts, and that it actively seeks to improve those workflows. "We are banning accounts we detect associated with this cluster of activity and are continuing to incorporate our investigative findings into new measures to detect and prevent the actors from misusing Anthropic’s services," the company wrote. Also in its analysis, Anthropic indicated the difficulty in trying to use nuance when establishing protection. "We want our models to be useful for scientific research. Indeed, we predict that AI will transform biological science and lead to the rapid development of many new medical treatments," it said. With AI models escaping test environments and high-level AI researchers resigning with warnings that AI could cause mass casualty events, public perception of the companies at the forefront of the sector has become increasingly negative. As a result, several legislators in the US Congress have introduced bills that would halt or put limits on AI research, although none of those proposals have become law. Meanwhile, the companies at the centre of AI development are balancing attempts to project transparency and caution amid accusations of generating panic to display how powerful their models are. "Anthropic says more stuff that cannot be verified, that the mass media uncritically regurgitates without asking any meaningful questions," one user posted on X in response to Anthropic's report. On the other side of that debate is US senator Bernie Sanders, who has been outspoken on AI and holding Big Tech firms more accountable. "AI threatens our economy, privacy, democracy and the well-being of our kids," Mr Sanders posted on social media recently. "Congress must stand up to the Big Tech oligarchs and protect the American people."来源 1

During his time as the founding director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, he dedicated more than a decade to developing the museum's collection.
