The US and Iran are set to begin peace talks, while conflict between Israel and Hezbollah continues in Lebanon. The talks, hosted by Pakistan, will cover conflicting multi-point plans, including Iran's 10-point plan and the US's expected requirements for Iran to give up its nuclear enrichment facilities.
Hezbollah and Israel have escalated cross-border attacks in Lebanon and Israel. The conflict started after Hezbollah joined Hamas' attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. A ceasefire has been reached between the US, Israel, and Iran, but it does not include Lebanon. Hezbollah has fired over 3,000 projectiles at Israel, while Israel has struck over 3,500 targets in Lebanon. The US and Iran will negotiate their conflicting plans on Saturday, hosted by Pakistan. The US delegation will be led by Vice President JD Vance, special envoy Steve Witkoff, and White House adviser Jared Kushner. Iran's 10-point plan includes maintaining control of the Strait of Hormuz and ending the regional war.
