Diplomacy stalls as Israel-Lebanon clashes derail US-Iran talks
TL;DR Summary
US-Iran peace talks to implement a nuclear deal were abruptly canceled, with Tehran delaying its delegation amid Israel’s renewed Lebanon campaign. The MoU had opened a 60-day window to negotiate a permanent agreement and to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which is currently mined. Hezbollah's rocket fire and Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon left fatalities and injuries, while the White House said it still aimed to begin technical talks soon and Iran demanded an end to Israeli attacks in Lebanon as part of any deal.
