US President Donald Trump said he is reviewing a new Iranian proposal to end the war but immediately dismissed it as unacceptable, writing on Truth Social that Iran has not yet paid a big enough price for its actions over the last 47 years. This comes after he rejected an earlier Iranian proposal earlier this week.

Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi told diplomats in Tehran that 'the ball is in the United States' court' to choose between diplomacy and confrontation, adding that Iran is prepared for both paths. Meanwhile, senior Iranian military official Mohammad Jafar Asadi warned that a renewed conflict between Iran and the US is likely, citing Washington's alleged lack of commitment to agreements.

Israel carried out strikes across southern Lebanon on Saturday, killing several people, according to Lebanon's state-run news agency. The Israeli military said it hit dozens of Hezbollah targets. The attacks have become regular despite a fragile ceasefire, with both sides accusing each other of violations. Hezbollah claimed several attacks targeting Israeli troops.

The health of imprisoned Iranian Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi is at 'very high risk,' her foundation and family said. She was urgently hospitalized in Zanjan after a cardiac crisis and fainting. Her family attributes her decline partly to a beating during her arrest in December. Iran's Intelligence Ministry is reportedly opposing her transfer to Tehran for treatment by her own doctors.
