⚡️🇮🇷🇺🇸The Wall Street Journal — Iran has reportedly allowed more flexibility in its terms for negotiations with the United States over a lasting ceasefire agreement.
Iran is said to have dropped the precondition that the U.S. end the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz before discussions on a ceasefire, per sources familiar with the talks cited by the newspaper.

📑 The WSJ adds that Tehran has proposed discussing its nuclear program in exchange for a reduction of U.S. sanctions.

- Iran has also signaled readiness to return to the negotiating table in Pakistan as early as next week, as reported by the newspaper.

⚡️🇮🇱12 News — Senior IDF officials say Israel believes its military objectives in Iran have been met, but argue the campaign would be a failure if enriched uranium remains in Iran and nuclear activity continues. They say Iranian authorities could still move to preserve or recover nuclear capabilities after the war, and quote one official as saying Israel must first exhaust diplomatic efforts to remove the uranium, then use force if needed — per source report.

➡️ Israel also assesses that Syria is rebuilding military capacity by dispersing air-defense components and other systems across the country, in part using surviving remnants not previously targeted — per source assessment.

- In Lebanon, the IDF says it is working to counter Hezbollah explosive drones, including attacks used today against its forces in southern Lebanon; military officials say 27 drones launched from Lebanon have been intercepted so far, but stress that Iron Dome cannot provide a complete solution — per source report.

➡️ The IDF says recent tests of alternative counter-drone systems were conducted about two weeks ago, but none has yet delivered satisfactory results despite industry claims; officials say a 100% interception rate is unrealistic, though they believe roughly an 80% success rate may be achievable — per source report.

- The military also says the main challenge is that some drones are launched from beyond the Yellow Line, an area the IDF is not currently striking under US direction. Senior officials say they would treat a launch cell there as an immediate threat and would be willing to attack it, but they acknowledge that this has not yet been tested — per source assessment.

⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇷Senior Democrat on Senate Foreign Relations Committee — President Trump's claim that the war has ended does not align with on-the-ground realities, as thousands of U.S. troops in the Middle East remain exposed to risks per source assessment.

💬 The administration initiated hostilities without congressional approval, and a unilateral declaration of conclusion fails to alter the ongoing situation.
