It's not clear what, if anything, has been signed by both parties, with Pakistan saying an official ceremony won't happen till Friday
Trump does say he's lifting the blockade. But declaring the Strait of Hormuz reopen isn't under his control

Pakistani PM says finalization “likely expected in the next 24 hours” and the deal to be signed electronically
Jun 13
We are closer to a peace deal than ever before. With finalisation likely expected in the next 24 hours, Pakistan is preparing for the electronic signing of the peace deal immediately after, followed by technical level talks next week.
We would like to thank United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran for their ongoing commitment during the negotiations, and we extend our sincere appreciation to our brothers in the region for their support. We are confident that this historic peace deal will form a strong foundation for lasting peace.

The Apache was scanning the night sky for Iranian threats to commercial ships below shortly after 1 a.m. local time on Tuesday when the drone detonated directly in front of it, U.S. officials said.
The drone’s infrared-guidance device landed in one of the pilot’s laps, burning through part of his flight suit. What was left of the drone wedged itself inside the aircraft.

JUST IN: "We hit them hard yesterday, and we're going to hit them again hard today,” Trump just told reporters.
"We were really close to a deal, but they keep tapping us along, they keep playing us for suckers," Trump said.

NEW: Trump hadn’t been convinced of the need to retaliate against Iran earlier in the day, U.S. officials said. Trump told the Journal this morning it “wasn’t a big deal.”
He changed his mind after Hegseth and Gen. Caine recommended military action during a White House briefing

UPDATE: In their Sunday call, Trump asked a Bibi not to attack Iran. Bibi wanted to respond, so Trump said to keep any retaliation limited and don't let the conflict escalate.
Israel attacked Iran.
On Monday, Trump asked Bibi to end attacks on Iran. Bibi agreed.
No yelling.
