US Iran Deal

Hezbollah explosive drones killed an IDF soldier and seriously wounded another in southern Lebanon, as President Trump declared it 'mandatory' for six Muslim nations to join the Abraham Accords as part of an Iran deal. The US and Iran voiced cautious optimism but tempered expectations of an imminent breakthrough, while Israeli opposition leaders accused Netanyahu of being sidelined.

The British navy is preparing to clear mines from the Strait of Hormuz once a deal is signed, though a US official says no mines have been found. Northern Israeli mayors say the emerging deal would be a 'death blow' if Hezbollah remains intact.

A Hezbollah explosive drone killed an IDF soldier and wounded two others in northern Israel, while President Trump announced that a US-Iran ceasefire deal is ‘largely negotiated’ and would reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The proposed 60-day truce includes a halt to Israel-Hezbollah fighting and talks on Iran’s highly enriched uranium, but Israeli officials and senior US Republicans have sharply criticized the emerging terms. Anti-government protests drew around 2,000 people across Israel, and a gunman was shot dead after firing near the White House.
