IMPORTANT:
A clarification on the reported U.S.-Iran agreement.
Earlier reports made it sound as though a final peace deal had already been reached & that Friday’s signing ceremony was largely a formality.
That is not what Iranian officials are now describing.
According to Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Gharibabadi, what has been finalized is a memorandum of understanding & framework for ending military operations, lifting the blockade & opening the way for further negotiations.
A formal signing is expected on Friday.
However, a further 60-day negotiating process would then follow, covering sanctions, the nuclear file, economic reconstruction, implementation mechanisms & verification of commitments.
Iranian officials also stress that entry into those negotiations is conditional on the United States first implementing its commitments regarding the end of the war, lifting the siege & releasing assets.
In short, this appears less like a final settlement & more like a framework designed to stop the fighting & create the conditions for a broader agreement.
The immediate question remains the same:
Can Trump deliver Israel?
Because if military operations are indeed meant to end on all fronts, including Lebanon, then Lebanon may provide the first real test of whether this understanding holds in practice.
A word of caution, however. We have heard talk of agreements, imminent agreements, understandings & breakthroughs before. Friday is still a long way away in military terms, & the road beyond it is longer still.
Much can happen between now & then. There are many stages yet to navigate & no shortage of actors capable of derailing the process.
Celebrations may be premature.
Today is day 982 of the genocide.
The worst crimes ever commited against children, recorded, and broadcast to the world.
Almost all of the journalists who shared these have been murdered. They sacrificed their lives to get the truth out.
ISRAEL JUST BROKE THE CEASEFIRE 🚨🚨
The IDF has just bombed southern Lebanon, launching strikes in multiple areas of the country.
This didn’t last even 24h.
JUST IN: 🇮🇷🇮🇱🇱🇧 Response by Iran’s Foreign Ministry to Israel’s claim they will not withdraw from Lebanon:
– We know that Israel never takes any action without consultation and direct coordination with America.
– Therefore, we hold America directly responsible if it fails to force Israel to submit to its obligations as part of the MoU, with necessary consequences.
I posted this two hours ago, that two people were killed in a strike carried out by terrorist israel.
I have just learnt that the two victims were a father, who was a nurse, and his child.
Second photo shows the brother and son of victims bedding them farewell. This is utterly heartbreaking.
Shame on israel and its evil terrorism.
🇮🇷🇱🇧 Israeli Officials Inciting Violence in Lebanon and Iran
Ben Gvir: And about the State of Israel. We must continue to demolish the houses in southern Lebanon, we must continue to drive the residents of south Lebanon away.
Smotrich: Israel will continue to use all the tools at its disposal to overthrow this murderous ayatollah regime in Iran and prevent this terrorist regime from becoming a nuclear threshold state

🚨BREAKING : Israeli forces killed 9 year old Mousa Al-Habil and his father, nurse Mohammed, while they were on the roof of their home in Sheikh Radwan, Gaza City, manually collecting water amid severe shortages and collapsing living conditions
JUST IN: Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Ismael Baqaei on the Strait of Hormuz:
“According to the MoU, Iran and Oman will be responsible for managing passage through the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran is not seeking to impose tolls. However, in return for navigation services, environmental protection, insurances and other maritime services, Iran will collect the necessary fees."
🚨BREAKING: HORRIFIC CRIME
Israeli forces have killed child Ryan Bahaa Abu Al-Ajeen shortly after detaining him and his father in Wadi Al-Salqa, east of Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip.
He was taken to hospital after his release but was pronounced dead on arrival, while his father was injured.
The Israeli military had previously claimed it targeted an “armed group” in the area.
🇮🇱 Israel Detained a CHILD and His Father. The Boy Came Back Dead.
Ryan Bahaa Abu Al-Ajin and his father were seized in Wadi al-Salqa, east of Deir al-Balah, then dumped on Salah al-Din Road. Both were assaulted in custody, according to the family.
The father survived his injuries. Ryan reached the hospital and was pronounced DEAD.
A child held by the most "moral army in the world" was returned a corpse. This is yet ANOTHER example of the criminal actions this IDF does.
🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱 An agreement with Iran would be shocking for Israel, and no one in the Israeli leadership, from the Prime Minister to the Chief of Staff, believes in the deal, a senior Israeli official tells Israeli Channel 13.
Breaking: SOS
Heavy Israeli gunfire is continuing in eastern Gaza City, specifically in the Al-Sanafour area and Al-Tuffah neighborhood.
Residents in the area are reporting that they are trapped amid intense gunfire and are calling for help.

Welcome to Israel: Where Every Retaliation Has a Retaliation
And in the news today:
Israel Announces Another Retaliation for a Previous Retaliation
Israel retaliated against Iran.
Which was retaliation for Israel's retaliation against Hezbollah.
Which was retaliation for Israel's retaliation against Iran.
Which was retaliation for Iran's retaliation against Israel.
Which was retaliation for the Houthis' retaliation against Israel.
Which was retaliation for Israel's retaliation against Hamas.
Which was retaliation for Hamas's retaliation against Israel.
Which was retaliation for October 7.
Which was retaliation for the occupation of Gaza.
Which was retaliation for Hamas kidnapping Israelis.
Which was retaliation for Israeli bombings.
Which was retaliation for suicide bombings.
...but we forgot what that was in retaliation for.
Welcome to “The State of Retaliation” — a.k.a. “The State of Israel.”
Trump wasted billions of dollars, murdered dozens of American soldiers, and raised food and fuel prices for everyone, just to open a Strait that was open before he started the war and start nuclear talks that already existed before he tore them up…
ANOTHER IRAN WIN
🇮🇷🇺🇸 Trump Concedes the One Thing He Swore He Never Would: Iran Keeps URANIUM ENRICHMENT
After months of "WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY ENRICHMENT," Trump told the New York Times that Iran will stay forever limited to low-level enrichment for civilian use. The dismantlement demand is dead.
This is EXACTLY what Iran wanted.
He drew his red line in all caps, then walked across it. Iran never moved.
If Trump and Netanyahu implement the deal, they lose. If they do not implement the deal, they lose. If they don't implement the deal, the global economy goes over the cliff.
https://t.co/P1UL83nukA
Prof Mirandi just confirmed this story: Iran was readying missiles to launch against Israel in response for Israel’s attack against Hezbollah in Beirut. That got Trump to make the final concessions, namely guaranteeing Israel will end its war in Lebanon.
I am HIGHLY skeptical that will last, as Netanyahu would likely a political rebellion in his own camp if he obeyed Trump and abruptly ended the fighting against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Most likely case is that the fragile almost-ceasefire scheduled for Friday is derailed before ink is put to paper.
BREAKING: Iran says the US has agreed to pay $300 billion in reconstruction funds directly to Iran as part of the deal Pakistan announced, alongside the release of $24 billion in frozen funds with $12 billion released before negotiations even start, per Mehr News.
This directly contradicts Trump's & Vance's claim that no funds will be transferred to Iran at all.
If Trump denies this is true, there never was a deal. If Trump confirms, the US has fully capitulated to Iran's demands.
