Iran is demanding sanctions relief, an end to the US naval blockade of its Gulf ports and guarantees against renewed attacks in exchange for restoring normal traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.

Netanyahu urged his supporters to vote, saying turnout was high among left-wing voters and Palestinian citizens of Israel.

Eurostat estimated that 30.6 million non-EU citizens lived in EU member states as of January 1, 2025.
