Summary
A major peace deal between the US and Iran, set to be signed Friday, faces serious hurdles—especially from Lebanon, where Iran demands Israel halt attacks on its neighbor. While the White House promises details within 48 hours, President Trump says specifics will come after signing, and Iranian media disputes US claims that the Strait of Hormuz will remain permanently open without tolls. Israel refuses to withdraw from occupied territory, casting doubt on whether the ceasefire even applies. Beirut residents are cautiously optimistic but fearful of a humanitarian collapse. At the G7, the deal sparks mixed reactions, with European leaders wary of Trump’s Middle East strategy. Meanwhile, Israeli politicians are criticizing the agreement as a victory for Iran, and there’s growing concern the deal may unravel if Iran reintroduces tolls post-ceasefire.
