British and French defence ministers are scheduled to meet tomorrow to discuss military plans for securing shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.

The talks follow escalating tensions in the region, where Israel has separately announced plans to reduce dependence on US military aid, signalling a shift in regional security arrangements.

The strait remains critical for global energy supplies and international commerce.
