- Tensions remain high between Iran, the U.S., and Israel. Reports today say President Trump has given Tehran “days” to reach a diplomatic agreement while Israel is reportedly preparing for the possibility of renewed military operations.
The White House says a previously planned U.S. strike on Iran was paused because negotiations are ongoing. Trump described the talks as “serious,” though officials indicate military options remain available if diplomacy fails.
Iran reportedly responded to a U.S. proposal through Pakistani mediators. Tehran’s demands reportedly include sanctions relief, release of frozen assets, and influence over shipping access in the Strait of Hormuz.
In Washington, the U.S. Senate advanced a War Powers resolution intended to limit unilateral presidential military action against Iran, reflecting growing political concern over escalation.
Reuters also reported explosions on Iran’s Qeshm Island that Iranian media said were caused by disposal of unexploded munitions.
Separately, the U.S. Treasury is pushing allies to intensify sanctions enforcement against Iranian financial networks and oil operations.
There are also continuing reports of domestic repression and internet disruptions inside Iran amid the broader regional conflict.
