Iran war live updates

USA Today world

Key Points:

  • Israel and Hezbollah agreed to a ceasefire starting at 4 p.m. local time on Friday after escalating violence threatened the U.S.-Iran interim peace deal, with U.S. and Qatari negotiators, aided by Iran, brokering the truce.
  • Vice President JD Vance canceled his planned trip to Switzerland for Iran peace talks, delaying U.S.-Iran negotiations, while President Trump will spend the weekend at Camp David focusing on policy and political meetings.
  • The interim agreement signed by Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian halts fighting, reopens the Strait of Hormuz, and sets a 60-day timeline to resolve Iran’s nuclear program and sanctions, though skepticism remains from Republicans and groups like United Against Nuclear Iran.
  • Violence between Israel and Hezbollah has resulted in at least 18 Lebanese and four Israeli deaths, complicating Trump’s efforts to secure a final peace deal; Israel disputes being bound by the Lebanon ceasefire terms and maintains its right to respond to attacks.
  • Gas and oil prices remained steady amid the pause in U.S.-Iran talks, with Brent crude around $77 per barrel and U.S. gasoline prices slightly down but still elevated compared to last year.
