Iran has threatened to blockade the Strait of Hormuz and target regional power plants following a 48-hour ultimatum from U.S. President Donald Trump. The escalation follows a series of maritime attacks that have already set commercial vessels ablaze and sent global energy markets into a state of high volatility.
Uber Technologies has officially integrated Joby Aviation’s all-electric air taxis into its platform, marking the launch of 'Uber Air.' The service is set to debut in Dubai later this year, signaling a major leap forward for zero-emission urban aerial transportation.
