Iran deal 'not final', US could resume strikes - Trump

US President Donald Trump stated at the G7 summit in Evian-les-Bains, France, that his ceasefire agreement with Iran is not final and could resume military action if conditions are not met. He warned that if Iran does not comply, the US would 'go back to shooting at them, dropping bombs on their head.' The memorandum of understanding, signed three days earlier, extends a ceasefire for 60 days to negotiate a permanent truce, but its details remain unpublished. Fighting in Lebanon has not fully ceased since the agreement, with Israeli airstrikes and artillery fire reported in southern towns today, including Nabatieh, where buildings were reduced to ruins. Lebanese officials confirmed Hezbollah launched drone attacks on Israeli forces, though the group did not claim responsibility. Displaced residents briefly returned to check on damaged homes but fled again due to renewed strikes. The G7 leaders, including Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan, expressed support for the deal while reiterating concerns about Iran’s nuclear program and regional threats. They called for negotiations to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons and pledged to help secure shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, now set to reopen. A coalition led by Britain and France will oversee the reopening. Despite the ceasefire, Iran’s government remains intact, its stockpile of enriched uranium unchanged, and its support for anti-Israel militias like Hezbollah continues. US officials claim further talks will address the uranium stockpile, but critics argue the agreement falls short of Trump’s initial war objectives. The truce’s success hinges on Iran’s compliance, with Israel reserving the right to use force independently.
