US-Israel-Iran War Live Updates: The apparent diplomatic breakthrough announced by US President Donald Trump was quickly clouded by uncertainty after Iranian media pushed back against his claims that key points of an agreement had already been approved. Trump said he cancelled planned strikes on Iran because discussions had reached the highest levels of the Iranian leadership and had secured broad regional backing. However, Iran's semi-official Fars News Agency later cited a source close to the negotiating team as saying that Tehran had not approved any text for a preliminary memorandum of understanding with Washington. The conflicting accounts left the true state of negotiations unclear, even as both sides continued indirect contacts. Trump earlier vowed to take Kharg Island, which handles roughly 90% of Iran's crude exports. Plans to capture the island have been drawn up for months but continuously shelved because it was considered too risky. Iranian officials have maintained that the country is prepared for any escalation and have rejected suggestions that military pressure would force concessions. Meanwhile, reports from Iranian and Western officials indicate that negotiations remain active, with major issues such as sanctions relief, frozen Iranian assets and regional security arrangements still unresolved.
