US Iran Peace Deal

The US and Iran have reached a peace deal, mediated by Pakistan, with a formal signing set for Friday in Switzerland. The agreement includes an immediate and permanent cessation of military operations on all fronts, including Lebanon, and the lifting of the US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Despite the deal, Israeli forces continued operations in southern Lebanon, with drone strikes and artillery fire reported, and a Hezbollah drone was intercepted over northern Israel. Tensions between President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu escalated, with Trump calling Netanyahu a 'very difficult guy' and criticizing the IDF's Beirut strike.
