U.S & Iran Agree To Stop Gulf Attacks & Renew Talks Over Hormuz Dispute

Iran and the United States have decided to halt the attacks in the Gulf and begin negtotiations, yet again over the Strait of Hormuz issue.

Talks will focus on all areas of the MOU, a U.S official said.

The situation escalated after an unidentified projectile struck a cargo ship in Hormuz, which U.S claimed was fired by Iran.

However, the latter did not claim responsibility for the attack on the ship Ever Lovely, which later continued on its journey.

U.S blamed Iran for violating the ceasefire over this incident and attacked Iranian missile and drone storage sites and coastal radar locations.

Iran retaliated by launching attacks on U.S military sites in Kuwait and Bahrain.

Meanwhile, Israel hit Hezbollah and destroyed underground infrastructure used by the group in a village in southern Lebanon.

It attacked Lebanon again on Saturday following the ceasefire agreement with Lebanon on friday.

Iran, on the other hand, said that fighting in Lebanon must end if the agreement is to hold.

The 14-point interim peace accord was meant to stop the fighting, and reopen the strait while issues like Iran’s nuclear program were to be discussed at later stages.

One round of talks, led by Vice President JD Vance and Iran’s parliamentary speaker, Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, was held in Switzerland last week when U.S waived sanctions on Tehran.

However, since then fighting has resumed and even intensified.

The army of Kuwait said that it intercepted two ballisitic missiles with no damage or casualties.

Also, a Qatari national died after sustaining injuries from shrapnel aboard a ship that had gone missing on Saturday.

Another person was injured in the incident after a military operation in the area, the interior ministry said.
