Iran and the United States have officially concluded the 60-day ceasefire period agreed upon after Operation "Roaring Lion," known in the U.S. as Epic Fury. Iranian officials say: "There is no new agreement, and there was never a ceasefire."

Jared Kushner, envoy for U.S. President Donald Trump, met with Hamas leaders in Cairo. Also attending were Gaza Peace Board chair Nikolay Mladenov and representatives from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey.

A newly revealed memorandum of understanding signed by the U.S. and Iran includes 14 clauses covering a halt to fighting, sanctions relief, and the nuclear program. The sides committed to negotiating a final agreement within 60 days.

The U.S. launched a broad new wave of strikes in Iran for the second night in a row. President Donald Trump said Israel was not involved in the Tomahawk missile attacks on targets across Iran. In response, Iran fired missiles at what it called "important" targets in Kuwait and Bahrain.

Iranian media reported that a preliminary agreement has been reached with the U.S. It reportedly includes a withdrawal of American forces from the Arabian Sea and reopening the Strait of Hormuz to shipping under joint Iranian-Omani supervision. The White House responded: “A complete fabrication.”

The U.S. administration said talks between Israel and Lebanon ended with an agreement to extend the ceasefire by 45 days. Hezbollah responded with drones and explosive UAVs aimed at northern Israel, while the IDF carried out strikes in southern Lebanon.

In a post on X, Iranian parliament spokesman Ebrahim Rezaei warned the U.S. and Israel, saying lawmakers may consider 90% enrichment if Iran is attacked again. U.S. and Israeli intelligence agree: Tehran’s nuclear program won’t be curbed unless its enriched-uranium stockpile is removed or destroyed.

At Sunday’s cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned a murder in Petah Tikva, denounced the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, and addressed the northern front, saying the IDF is operating in Lebanon "with force" and that Hezbollah’s violations are eroding the cease-fire.

Washington is weighing steps against key NATO partners that, officials say, failed to back U.S. operations against Iran. An internal email circulated among top Pentagon ranks outlines options ranging from sidelining Spain to revisiting the U.S. stance on the Falklands.

A CBS report says that by the start of the cease-fire, roughly half of Iran's ballistic missiles and launchers were still intact—and about 60% of the IRGC's naval arm remained operational.

For the first time since the Gaza ceasefire took effect, Washington officials reportedly sat down with Hamas in Cairo. The sticking point: Israel wants a disarmament pledge; Hamas says that sidelines other commitments.

In a blunt interview, President Donald Trump tore into Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni over security and Iran, citing Italy’s refusal to help secure the Strait of Hormuz and the government’s reported move to block U.S. use of Italian bases for a potential war with Iran.

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says he secretly visited troops under CENTCOM, recounts missiles intercepted and pilots back in action, reports a drop in Iranian launches, and warns that if Tehran refuses a deal, the 'War Department' will hit harder—adding, 'Trump isn't bluffing and he won't back down.'

A Wall Street Journal report says both Gulf powers are nearing a decision on direct involvement. Riyadh has opened its bases to U.S. forces, and a source warns: "It's only a matter of time."
