While the duration and trajectory of the conflict were initially uncertain, developments in the region have persisted longer than anticipated. The situation continues to evolve, with diplomacy, negotiations and tactical dynamics shifting frequently and often unpredictably. More recently, focus has turned to ceasefire proposals, including a 14‑day truce that commenced on 8 April, which, albeit fragile, has contributed to a modest improvement in near‑term market sentiment. Latest reporting suggests that negotiations towards a more durable settlement remain active.
