Today on Global Crossroads, we examine significant global instability. We cover escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway for global energy supplies.

A devastating earthquake in Venezuela has tragically claimed 4,490 lives, signaling a profound humanitarian crisis and challenging recovery efforts.

Europe is grappling with 'exceptional scale' heatwaves and wildfires, including a virulent fire near Paris in the Fontainebleau forest. Data indicates 10,000 excess deaths across Europe during late June, with England and Wales reporting over 2,700 deaths in May and June, and Spain's fire death toll rising to 13.

In Eastern Europe, Ukraine's drone strikes have forced Russia to suspend shipping in the Sea of Azov and targeted fuel supplies, causing gas queues. Lastly, Typhoon Bavi battered eastern China, leading to the evacuation of nearly two million people and causing widespread flooding.
