๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท- According to a senior Iranian official cited by Reuters, the U.S. has shown some flexibility in discussions, including on restrictions surrounding Iran's nuclear program.

โžก๏ธ However, the U.S. has only agreed to unfreeze 25% of Iran's frozen assets on a set timeline, falling short of Tehran's demand for the full release of all frozen funds.

โžก๏ธ Iran's updated proposal reportedly calls for a permanent end to the war, the lifting of sanctions, and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, with nuclear program discussions to be deferred to later stages of the negotiations.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ทโŒ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ- A source close to the Iranian negotiation team told Tasnim that despite some changes in the latest U.S. proposal, fundamental disagreements persist.

โžก๏ธ Iran is standing firm on its demands for a full and transparent return of its frozen assets, rejecting what it describes as vague promises, and is insisting on compensation from the U.S. for military aggression, though the two sides remain far apart on the amount.

โžก๏ธ The source also pushed back strongly on U.S. demands regarding Iran's nuclear program, describing them as politically motivated and contrary to Iranian rights.

โžก๏ธ Iran firmly rejects any attempt to link the end of the war to nuclear concessions, stating it will not agree to end hostilities in exchange for nuclear commitments under any circumstances. The source reiterated that Iran has no intention of developing nuclear weapons, calling the U.S. claims to the contrary an excuse and a deception.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธโŒ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท- According to Axios, the White House views Iran's updated proposal as falling far short of what is needed for a deal. A senior U.S. official described it as containing only token improvements, with stronger language on Iran's commitment not to pursue nuclear weapons but no detailed commitments on suspending uranium enrichment or transferring its existing stockpile of highly enriched uranium.

โžก๏ธ The official warned that if Iran refuses to shift its position, the U.S. will have to continue negotiations "through bombs," adding, "We are at a very serious place today. The pressure is on them to be responsive in the right way."

โžก๏ธ No sanctions relief will be granted without reciprocal action from Iran, the official added, dismissing Iranian state media reports that the U.S. had agreed to waive oil sanctions.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธโŒ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท- According to Israel Hayom, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened the small cabinet once again tonight, with discussions centering on the possibility of a renewed round of military action against Iran.

โžก๏ธ Israeli security sources report that preparations have already been put in place, with estimates suggesting any new round would last several days and could be the final one for the foreseeable future. Sources indicate the planned strikes would differ from previous rounds, targeting sites Trump has so far avoided.

โžก๏ธ Israeli officials stressed that Trump will not abandon his core goal of removing Iran's enriched uranium stockpile, describing its continued existence as "very bad" and adding that Trump "means what he says" and "will not stop here."

I have been asked by the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, and the President of the United Arab Emirates, Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to hold off on our planned Military attack of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which was scheduled for tomorrow, in that serious negotiations are now taking place, and that, in their opinion, as Great Leaders and Allies, a Deal will be made, which will be very acceptable to the United States of America, as well as all Countries in the Middle East, and beyond. This Deal will include, importantly, NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN! Based on my respect for the above mentioned Leaders, I have instructed Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, The Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Daniel Caine, and The United States Military, that we will NOT be doing the scheduled attack of Iran tomorrow, but have further instructed them to be prepared to go forward with a full, large scale assault of Iran, on a momentโ€™s notice, in the event that an acceptable Deal is not reached. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
