US President Donald Trump stated that a peace deal with Iran would be signed, announcing that Iran's leadership had approved a draft framework for the agreement. According to the Times of India, Trump cancelled planned strikes against Iran and announced the diplomatic deal, surprising Benjamin Netanyahu. Trump claimed Iran agreed to return to the negotiating table, and the US proposed a 60-day ceasefire during which a full agreement would be worked out, according to Gdelt.

The announcement has placed Trump and Netanyahu on a collision course regarding the war and the peace deal. According to Tass, Trump told Netanyahu he could lose US support if the Iran situation escalates, and the New York Post reported that Netanyahu called the deal "Trump's decision." Israeli officials privately described the preliminary US-Iran agreement as "terrible for Israel," according to Gulf News and other outlets. However, Israeli officials are speaking carefully in public to avoid upsetting the US, while Israeli politicians expressed anger or slammed the deal, according to the New York Post.

Israeli military operations continued in Lebanon, despite reports from ABC Australia that Trump asked Israel not to carry out further attacks on the country. Analyst Aaron David Miller calls the Iran war a strategic disaster for Israel, stating Netanyahu's war aims have not occurred. Netanyahu had believed that a joint war with Trump would help topple Iran's clerical rulers and strengthen his position before upcoming elections, but he is now heading toward a clash with Trump, who wants to exit the war.

The region remains destabilized due to fractious alliances and dysfunctional ceasefires. Analyst Trita Parsi states Israel's actions in Lebanon threaten US-Iran diplomacy. A social media user expresses skepticism about the deal, suggesting Trump may abandon it and questioning Iran's willingness to proceed if Israel continues operations in Lebanon. Trump expects to attend a UFC fight after the Iran peace deal signing, according to Mother Jones.
