The US launched retaliatory strikes against Iran on June 9 after President Donald Trump accused Iran of downing a U.S. attack helicopter a day earlier.
President Trump said the US and Iran were in the “final throes” of negotiations on a deal that would permanently block Tehran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
Iran said it suspended military operations against Israel but warned any further Israeli attacks—including in Lebanon—would trigger a more severe response.
The US won’t unfreeze Iran’s assets until a long-term peace deal to end the conflict in the Middle East is reached, President Donald Trump said on June 7.
