The US military fired at an empty tanker for its suspected involvement in the Iranian oil trade this week as Washington continues to enforce a blockade of the Islamic Republic’s ports. An American fighter jet fired a precision munition into the Marivex’s engineering and steering spaces on Monday as it attempted to sail from the Gulf of Oman toward Iran, the US Central Command said . The ship was crewed by 24 Indian nationals , a government official in New Delhi said before the Centcom statement. Ship-tracking data showed the Marivex, which is falsely flagged to Madagascar, appeared to be trying to sail past the US’s blockade line that runs from the easternmost tip of Oman to the Iran-Pakistan border. In the past week, the vessel had twice sailed northeast along the Omani coast toward the line, where US warships are stationed, before turning around. The small tanker of around 12,800 deadweight tons is owned by Panama-based Arihant Shipping Inc., according to database Equasis. Arihant Shipping, and India’s foreign affairs and shipping ministries didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment. The vessel was sanctioned by the US Treasury Department under its previous name Arihant for transporting Iranian fuel oil and bitumen. Marivex recently delivered a cargo, believed to have loaded from the Iranian port of Shahid Rajaee, to Mangalore and Karwar in India, ship-tracking data from Kpler show. The US has been enforcing a blockade of ships sailing to and from Iranian ports since mid-April, as it seeks to increase pressure on Iran to end its own blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. So far, American forces have disabled seven non-compliant vessels and redirected 134 ships, the Central Command said. Iran exported 14 million tons of fuel oil last year, with most of it going to the United Arab Emirates, Kpler data show. The country also delivered 734,000 tons of bitumen asphalt, with nearly two-thirds of those volumes heading to China and India.

就在刚刚，WWDC 2026落幕了。 这是库克以CEO身份主讲的最后一届WWDC。新CEO John Ternus全程隐身，把整个舞台留给了库克，属于是把情商拉满了。 苹果也终于对那件拖了两年的事下了决心——把从乔布斯时代一路走来的Siri，升级成了 Siri AI 。 海外已经有网友抢先用上了： 按住侧边按钮，直接语音对Siri说话，它就可以帮你从联系人的对话记录里查询到你想要的信息。 看着确实挺不赖的。 但值得注意的是，Siri背后的大脑并不来自苹果自己，而是来自一直以来的对手谷歌。 与此同时，这也是一场信息密度极高的发布会。 新一代Apple Intelligence架构、智能家居操作系统homeOS、macOS 27Golden Gate、一整套AI驱动的原生应用升级、力度罕见的儿童安全改版，以及库克15年CEO生涯的告别演讲，全部被塞进了70多分钟里。 但比起这些具体更新，更值得玩味的或许是另一件事： 如果说乔布斯最终让 手机≈iPhone成 为一种共识，那么AI（库克）时代，苹果显然没能复制同样的故事。 Apple Intelligence喊了一年又一年，最后连Siri的大脑都换成了谷歌。 从这个角度看，AI的全称，大概永远不会是Apple Intelligence了（doge）。 Siri：能看、能搜、能记、能写，还能保证隐私 先说这次最大的亮点，Siri AI。 新版Siri终于从一个只能设闹钟、查天气、切歌的语音助手，变成了一个真正意义上的AI Agent。 苹果给它补上了屏幕感知、跨App搜索、联网检索、多步骤任务执行等Agent能力。 它既能理解设备上的内容，也能结合互联网信息完成复杂任务。 在苹果的官方演示里，你问Siri一场音乐会的信息，Siri给出票务渠道，接着自动设置日历提醒。 整个过程不需要切换应用，也不需要重复描述需求。Siri知道你在聊什么，并能顺着上下文继续执行后续操作。 与此同时，Siri的交互入口也发生了彻底变化。 在iPhone上，Siri正式“入住”灵动岛。 除了传统的“嘿 Siri”和侧边键唤起方式，用户还可以直接从灵动岛下滑进入连续对话。 在iPad和Mac上，Siri则被整合进Spotlight搜索框。 Mac用户还能直接右键点击图片、文件或文字，将当前内容交给Siri处理。 Apple Vision Pro则进一...
