US President Donald Trump has suggested that an initial peace deal with Iran could be signed on Sunday, but the Iranian government has cast doubt on that timeline.

Meanwhile, Israel continues its strikes on Lebanon, keeping the region on edge.

According to DW's latest updates, both the US and Iranian regimes have indicated that a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for peace may be imminent. However, Iran has expressed skepticism over Trump's proposed schedule.

If the deal materializes, it is expected to gradually reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global oil supplies.

Analysts suggest that the US regime's push for a quick deal may be driven by its own geopolitical interests, while Iran is reportedly holding out for more favorable terms.
