Trump threatened to ‘blow up’ Oman — why the tiny Gulf kingdom is caught between DC and Iran

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
President Donald Trump’s threat to «blow up» Oman if the Gulf kingdom didn’t «behave» has exposed a rare rupture with one of Washington’s most valuable Middle East partners — a country that has spent decades quietly serving as America’s backchannel to Iran.
«The strait’s gotta be open to everybody,» the president said during a Cabinet meeting Wednesday. «It’s international waters. Nobody’s going to control it. We’re going to watch over it. We’ll watch over it, but nobody’s going to control it. That’s part of the negotiation that we have. They would like to control it; nobody’s going to control it. It’s international waters. And Oman will behave just like everybody else, or we’ll have to blow ‘em up. They understand that. They’ll be fine.»
The remark came amid a dispute over the future of the Strait of Hormuz, the narrow waterway connecting the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Sea through which roughly a fifth of the world’s oil supply passes. The Trump administration has strongly opposed reported discussions involving Iran and Oman over a potential tolling system or joint management arrangement for the strait, arguing such a move would threaten freedom of navigation and give Tehran greater influence over one of the world’s most important shipping routes.
The comments reflected a broader dispute over how far Oman should go in its efforts to engage Iran as the two countries discuss proposals related to the future management of the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important shipping routes.
STRAIT OF HORMUZ TOLL WOULD SET ‘DANGEROUS PRECEDENT,’ UN SHIPPING AGENCY WARNS

The Omani embassy and the White House could not be reached for comment on the underlying tensions or negotiations on the Strait of Hormuz.
Situated on the southeastern edge of the Arabian Peninsula, Oman occupies the southern side of the Strait of Hormuz and has long pursued a foreign policy distinct from many of its Gulf neighbors.
While maintaining close security ties with the U.S., Muscat also has preserved relations with Iran, allowing it to serve as one of the region’s key intermediaries. Oman helped facilitate secret U.S.–Iran talks that paved the way for nuclear negotiations, has repeatedly served as a diplomatic channel between Washington and Tehran and has played a role in negotiations involving Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels.
«Oman’s role as the Switzerland of the Middle East has advanced U.S. interests,» April Alley, a senior fellow at The Washington Institute, told Fox News Digital.
«They have facilitated numerous rounds of talks between U.S. and Iranians,» she said. «They were also able to broker a truce between the US and the Houthis in the Red Sea. Their neutrality allows them to be quiet facilitators when adversaries are ready to talk.»
Oman’s value to Washington historically has stemmed from its ability to maintain communication channels with actors that many U.S. partners cannot or will not engage directly.
The Gulf kingdom has served as a go-between in negotiations involving the United States and Iran, supported diplomatic efforts related to Yemen and frequently positioned itself as a neutral intermediary during regional crises.
Yacoubian described that role as «indispensable» to previous diplomatic efforts.
«Oman has long played an important role as a quiet mediator, acting as a go-between for the United States and Iran in various negotiations including for the Obama-era JCPOA and more recently with the Trump administration and its efforts to negotiate with Iran prior to the 12-day war in June 2025,» she said.

A real dispute beneath the rhetoric
While Trump’s remarks drew attention, experts said they reflected a substantive disagreement over the future of the Strait of Hormuz rather than a purely rhetorical outburst.
«I think it was both,» Alley said when asked whether the remarks were simply an unusual threat directed at a longtime U.S. partner or reflected deeper concerns.
«Oman is an important defense partner, and the Trump administration has a record of working with them on mediation initiatives. The President has an unconventional style, but still this comment was shocking.»
«Beyond the shock value, I think it reflects clear frustration on the part of the administration with the Omani approach to the Strait,» she said. «The President is signaling that Oman has gone too far in discussions with Iran on options for opening the Strait that could give Iran administrative control and interfere with freedom of navigation.»
The administration’s concerns center on reports that Iran and Oman have discussed arrangements involving tolls, fees or joint administration of the strategic waterway.
«The administration is right to be concerned about tolls, fees, or joint management of the Strait,» Alley said. «All of these things are a recipe for Iran interfering with freedom of navigation in the long term and they could set a dangerous precedent for other international waterways.»
She warned that if Iran were able to exert administrative control over Hormuz, other Iran-backed groups could seek similar arrangements elsewhere.
«I could see the Houthis trying for the same in the Bab al-Mandeb,» she said.
Mona Yacoubian, senior adviser and director of the Middle East Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, similarly argued that any arrangement that financially benefits Iran through management of the strait would be cause for concern.
«If in fact under discussion, a joint management scheme that accrues monetary benefit to Iran, Oman, and possibly other GCC countries would be a justifiable cause for U.S. concern as this would undermine broader principles of freedom of navigation and set a worrying precedent globally,» she told Fox News Digital.
Yacoubian said Oman likely is attempting to serve as a bridge between Iran and Gulf Arab states amid concerns over future shipping disruptions in the strait.
«Oman is likely seeking to serve as a bridge between Iran and the Gulf Cooperation Council states,» she said.
But, Yacoubian added, «It is important to underscore that these types of threats are not well-received globally and contribute to an overall erosion of trust in the United States as a credible negotiator and leading global power.»
WHY GULF STATES AREN’T JOINING THE WAR AGAINST IRAN — DESPITE ATTACKS ON THEIR SOIL
Oman’s role has not been without controversy. Unlike many of its Gulf neighbors, Muscat has often sought to maintain relationships with rival regional powers even during periods of heightened tension.
Michael Rubin, a senior fellow at the Middle East Forum, argued that concerns about Muscat extend beyond the current dispute over the Strait of Hormuz.
«Oman often acts as Qatar-lite,» Rubin told Fox News Digital. «They like to mediate but, in the past at least, they appear to have turned blind eyes to terror finance and weapons smuggling.»
Rubin pointed to what he described as three longstanding concerns: alleged Iranian weapons smuggling through Oman to Yemen’s Houthi rebels, Oman’s hosting of Houthi leaders and what he characterized as financial incentives tied to disruptions in Red Sea shipping.
«It’s no secret that Oman has kind of chosen its own path, and sometimes split the difference between Iran and the rest of the Gulf in ways that have concerned U.S. policymakers,» Daniel Beinam, fellow of the Middle East Institute and former senior State Department official for Middle Eastern affairs, told Fox News Digital.

Even so, Beinam emphasized the depth of the relationship between the two countries.
«For a century and a half, Oman has been a close partner to the United States,» he said.

Dermatitis atópica: por qué no solo afecta la piel y requiere un abordaje integral

La dermatitis atópica es una enfermedad inflamatoria crónica de la piel que afecta profundamente la vida diaria, en especial la de niños y adolescentes. Su impacto se extiende más allá de las lesiones cutáneas visibles e influye en el bienestar emocional, social y laboral de quienes la padecen. Con el objetivo de promover la atención destinada a personas con sospecha de la enfermedad, los primeros días de junio se llevará a cabo la sexta campaña nacional de detección gratuita.
La dermatitis atópica se presenta con brotes frecuentes, picazón persistente y síntomas como enrojecimiento, dolor, costras e infecciones. Este trastorno puede alterar el descanso, la dinámica familiar y el rendimiento escolar o laboral. Un abordaje integral, que incluya intervención médica especializada y atención a la salud mental, es clave para tratar eficazmente la enfermedad y preservar la calidad de vida.
Al menos el 10% de los niños y adolescentes en el país conviven con esta dolencia, y en casi 30% de los casos los síntomas persisten hasta la adultez. El eccema puede generar incomodidad física, afectar el sueño y limitar actividades cotidianas. Las lesiones suelen aparecer en la cara, el cuero cabelludo, las manos y zonas de pliegues, aunque su localización varía según la edad.

En la infancia, las erupciones predominan en mejillas y brazos, mientras que en adolescentes son más comunes en codos o rodillas. En adultos, suelen localizarse en párpados, muñecas, pies y manos. La diversidad de síntomas requiere ajustar el tratamiento de acuerdo al perfil del paciente para obtener mejores resultados.
Frecuentemente, la dermatitis atópica está asociada a otras comorbilidades, como alergia alimentaria, rinitis o asma. El origen multifactorial, con influencias genéticas y ambientales, explica la variabilidad de su presentación. Contar con un enfoque conjunto de dermatólogos y alergistas permite diseñar estrategias personalizadas y mejorar la salud general del paciente.
El impacto en la calidad de vida es elevado: alrededor del 90% de los pacientes ve afectada una o más áreas de su rutina diaria, como el trabajo, la escuela, los vínculos sociales y la economía familiar.

El prurito constante limita actividades cotidianas y puede originar trastornos psicológicos. Quienes padecen picazón crónica tienen el triple de posibilidades de desarrollar depresión y el doble de riesgo de experimentar ansiedad. El descanso nocturno se altera, lo que disminuye el rendimiento diurno y aumenta el riesgo de accidentes relacionados con la somnolencia.
La incomodidad, la dificultad para dormir y la exposición a lesiones pueden llevar a evitar actividades deportivas y sociales. La consulta temprana y el tratamiento adecuado son fundamentales para restablecer la salud integral y potenciar el desarrollo futuro de quienes conviven con esta patología.
El diagnóstico de la dermatitis atópica suele demorarse, especialmente en algunas provincias, donde en 6 de cada 10 casos puede tardar entre dos y cinco años. Esta demora retrasa el acceso a terapias adecuadas y complica el control de la enfermedad.

Consultar al médico ante los primeros síntomas es esencial para lograr un diagnóstico temprano y evitar la progresión del eccema o la aparición de complicaciones graves. La detección precoz facilita la personalización del tratamiento y previene recaídas o infecciones recurrentes.
Dada su complejidad, la enfermedad requiere el trabajo coordinado de dermatólogos y alergistas, quienes adaptan las terapias según la gravedad, los antecedentes y la coexistencia de otras afecciones. Un enfoque integral mejora la eficacia del tratamiento y contribuye al bienestar físico y emocional del paciente.
Han aparecido medicamentos biológicos, como los inhibidores de las interleuquinas 4 y 13, así como inhibidores de JAK orales, que ofrecen mejores resultados en casos moderados o graves. Estas opciones permiten controlar tanto la picazón como las lesiones cutáneas, mejorando así el pronóstico general.

Más allá de los tratamientos médicos, el autocuidado cumple un rol vital. Identificar y evitar factores desencadenantes, así como aprender sobre el adecuado cuidado de la piel, son acciones recomendadas para reducir los brotes. Los especialistas insisten en que cada caso debe recibir un seguimiento individual y un ajuste de las estrategias según la respuesta clínica.
Silvia Fernández Barrio, presidenta de la Asociación Civil para el Enfermo de Psoriasis (AEPSO), destaca que la dermatitis atópica “atraviesa mucho más que la piel”, y enfatiza la necesidad de diagnóstico oportuno y acceso a alternativas terapéuticas según cada etapa de la enfermedad.
En este contexto, la Asociación Civil para el Enfermo de Psoriasis (AEPSO), la Sociedad Argentina de Psoriasis (SOARPSO), la Asociación Argentina de Alergia e Inmunología Clínica (AAAeIC), la Sociedad de Dermatología Pediátrica para Latinoamérica (SDPL) y la Asociación Argentina de Dermatología (AAD) organizan la sexta campaña nacional de detección gratuita de dermatitis atópica. El objetivo es facilitar el acceso al diagnóstico y mejorar la calidad de vida de los afectados.
Entre el 1 y el 7 de junio se asignarán turnos online en pedirturno.com.ar y a través del teléfono 0800 222 3776, de lunes a viernes de 9 a 14h. Las consultas y atenciones tendrán lugar del 8 al 12 de junio en diferentes provincias y ciudades, con participación de profesionales de distintas especialidades.
Estas acciones buscan reducir barreras, agilizar el diagnóstico y orientar a cada persona hacia una atención experta. Así, se promueve el control adecuado de la dermatitis atópica y se favorece una mejor calidad de vida para quienes conviven con la enfermedad.

The celeb endorsements boosting Spencer Pratt’s chances of becoming the next LA mayor

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
As Los Angeles voters prepare to head to the polls next week, reality TV star and online influencer-turned-mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt has gained surprising momentum in the race for mayor. He’s racked up endorsements from fellow reality stars as well as famous actors, musicians and media personalities.
Despite a growing list of high-profile supporters, Pratt said in an interview on «Gutfeld!» on Thursday that celebrity endorsements are not a priority for his campaign. «I actually don’t want celebrities to come out and endorse me,» he said, adding the only endorsements he wants are from «the moms and the animal lovers in L.A.»
Fox News Digital breaks down the biggest names fueling Pratt’s rise in the second-largest U.S. city ahead of the June 2 primary.
1. Joe Rogan
During an April 15 episode of «The Joe Rogan Experience,» Rogan told Pratt he would vote for him if he could.
«Listen, man. I’m voting for you. I can’t vote for you, but I’m rooting for you,» the world’s most famous podcaster said in a sit-down with the mayoral candidate.

Carolla describes himself as a libertarian and supported Andrew Yang’s Democratic primary run in the 2020 presidential election.
3. Dennis Quaid
The actor endorsed Pratt’s mayoral bid during a May 23 exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, saying, «Go Spencer Pratt.»
Quaid has previously criticized LA Mayor Karen Bass for traveling to Ghana as the wildfires erupted. The actor was critical of city leaders over water shortages, budget cuts to Los Angeles Fire Department and the broader response to the wildfires.
Pratt’s meteoric rise in the campaign stemmed from viral videos of him speaking on the lot of his burned down house and promising to help rebuild Los Angeles.
4. Paris Hilton
The reality star and heiress to the Hilton Hotels throne backed Pratt on April 24.
She promoted «Spencer for Mayor» with a raised-hands emoji on his Instagram video showing the Airstream trailer he has been living in since his Pacific Palisades home was destroyed in the California wildfires.

6. Billy Bush
«Hot Mics» host Billy Bush threw his support behind Pratt after the mayoral debate on May 6. Many were surprised at how well Pratt fared and started taking him seriously as a candidate after his showdown with his two Democrat competitors.
Bush said that Pratt «won that debate flat out» and calling him «relatable» and «likable» during an appearance on «Jesse Watters Primetime» earlier this month.
He added that the Republican candidate running as an independent doesn’t represent «MAGA» but does appeal to people who have «had enough of mismanagement in our government.»
7. Meghan McCain
Meghan McCain, conservative commentator and daughter of the late Republican Arizona Sen. John McCain, wrote on X that Pratt’s debate performance was «the blueprint» for how «older millennials need to communicate and present their ideas and campaign messaging when running for office.»
McCain described Pratt as «10/10 no notes» and echoed Bush and other supporters when saying he «killed the debate» performance.
8. Katharine McPhee & David Foster
Singer Katharine McPhee and her composer and record producer husband David Foster hosted a star-studded fundraiser for Pratt at their Brentwood Park home.

10. Brody Jenner
Brody Jenner, the son of Caitlyn Jenner who co-starred with Pratt in «The Princes of Malibu» and «The Hills,» was one of the candidate’s earliest supporters.

Jenner said Pratt has «the backbone to stand up to career politicians.»
11. Audrina Patridge
Another fellow reality TV star Audrina Patridge said she was «impressed» by Pratt after listening to his interviews.
Pratt «would make a lot of change to L.A. and he would follow through with what he said,» she told Us Weekly in an interview earlier in May.

The «Dancing With the Stars» alum, like many who have backed «The Hill» reality star, cannot vote for Pratt because she lives in Orange County and not L.A. proper.

Beyond the endorsements, Pratt’s campaign has also surged financially. It reportedly brought in millions of dollars and has out raised both incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and progressive Democrat challenger Nithya Raman.
Pratt, a registered Republican running as an independent in the nonpartisan race, launched his mayoral bid in January after criticizing city officials, including Bass and Raman, over their response to the devastating wildfires that destroyed his house, homelessness and crime in America’s second-largest city.

Brasil está investigando un posible caso de ébola en un hombre que viajó a África

Las autoridades sanitarias del estado brasileño de San Pablo informaron que investigan un posible caso de ébola en un hombre con antecedente reciente de viaje a la República Democrática del Congo (RDC).
La Secretaría de Salud regional comunicó que el paciente presentó síntomas compatibles con la enfermedad, como fiebre, y permanece internado en una zona aislada del Instituto de Infectología Emilio Ribas de San Pablo.
Aunque los exámenes de laboratorio aún no han confirmado el caso, la investigación comenzó de manera preventiva tras detectarse los síntomas, siguiendo los protocolos médicos.
“El procedimiento incluye aislamiento, notificación inmediata, investigación laboratorial y monitoreo”, explicó Regiane de Paula, de la Coordinación de Control de Enfermedades regional, según declaraciones citadas en el comunicado.
La Secretaría de Salud estimó que el riesgo de introducción de la enfermedad en Brasil es “muy baja”, debido a la ausencia de transmisión autóctona y a la falta de vuelos directos entre el país y la región afectada por el virus.

No obstante, la dependencia recomendó a los servicios de salud vigilar a personas con fiebre y viajes recientes a la RDC, y evaluar a quienes hayan tenido contacto con los primeros casos.
El actual brote corresponde a la cepa Bundibugyo, que presenta una tasa de letalidad entre el 30% y el 50% y para la cual no existe vacuna autorizada.
Esta cepa ha causado 246 muertes entre más de 1.000 casos sospechosos en la RDC, según un balance divulgado por la agencia de salud de la Unión Africana.
El virus también se ha extendido a la vecina Uganda, con nueve contagios confirmados, incluida una muerte.
El ébola se caracteriza por fiebre alta, dolor de cabeza, dolores musculares, vómitos y, en casos graves, puede provocar una falla múltiple de órganos y la muerte.
La transmisión ocurre mediante contacto directo con los fluidos corporales de la persona afectada.

La situación del brote de ébola en el este de la República Democrática del Congo (RDC) es “profundamente alarmante” dos semanas después de la declaración de la epidemia, alertó este sábado la organización Médicos Sin Fronteras (MSF).
“Dos semanas tras la declaración del brote de ébola en la provincia de Ituri, la situación es profundamente alarmante y motivo legítimo de inquietud tanto para las comunidades como para el personal sanitario de primera línea”, declaró el director adjunto de operaciones de MSF, Alan González, en un comunicado.
El actual brote es el primero que registra “tantos casos tan poco tiempo después de su declaración”, advirtió González.
Además, afirmó que las comunidades locales necesitan “urgentemente” una respuesta “a la altura de la magnitud de la crisis a la que se enfrentan”, pues los actuales esfuerzos aún no han logrado seguir el ritmo a la “rápida propagación” del virus.
“La realidad actual es que nadie conoce la verdadera magnitud y gravedad de este brote. Cada día se notifican nuevos casos sospechosos, pero cientos de muestras siguen sin analizarse”, añadió.
A las dificultades de diagnóstico por la “limitada capacidad” de realizar pruebas se unen “importantes restricciones” como el cierre de fronteras y aeropuertos, lo que retrasa la llegada de suministros médicos esenciales, ayuda humanitaria y personal especializado.
“Sabemos por experiencia que estas medidas dificultan gravemente la respuesta al brote y aíslan a los países que necesitan urgentemente apoyo internacional”, lamentó.
González también señaló el “limitado” número de organizaciones médicas especializadas que operan sobre el terreno y que el nivel de apoyo prestado “dista mucho” del que se necesita, con muchos centros de salud “desbordados” en comunidades donde las necesidades médicas “ya son acuciantes”.
