Pakistani prime minister announces peace deal between US and Iran, including "an immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including Lebanon." Unclear if Isarel is a party or expected to abide by the agreement.
Following intensive talks, we are pleased to announce that the Peace Deal between the United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran has been REACHED. Both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon. The official signing ceremony will be on Friday, 19 June in Switzerland. We would like to thank the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran for their commitment to finding a diplomatic solution to the conflict. We would also like to extend our sincere appreciation to our brothers in this mediation effort, the great leadership of State of Qatar, for their support in reaching this agreement. I would also especially thank the visionary leadership of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Republic of Türkiye for their immense contributions in this regard. With the agreement now in place, mediators will facilitate a series of meetings this week. These pre-implementation discussions will lay the foundation for the technical talks and the official signing ceremony. @realDonaldTrump @JDVance @SecRubio @SteveWitkoff @SEPeaceMissions @drpezeshkian @mb_ghalibaf @araghchi

Despite reported efforts to the contrary by President Trump, it appears that the Iranian regime is still planning a military response to Israel for the IDF airstrike in Beirut earlier today.
پاسخ رزمندگان اسلام در پیش است. وحدت میدان‌ها یک زنجیره امنیتی در دفاع از منطقه ایجاد کرده است. لبنان جان ماست و نقض خطوط قرمز جمهوری اسلامی تحمل نخواهد شد. #الوعده_وفا محمدباقر ذوالقدر دبیر شورای عالی امنیت ملی

One of the primary goals between the Syrian regime and Jordanian monarchy is the pacification of Sweida in SW Syria. Having been unsuccessful in a military campaign against the Druze majority province due to Israeli interference, the Syrian president is pivoting to a bilateral effort with Jordan that focuses on the drug trade there.
Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani and Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi held talks in Damascus as part of ongoing efforts to strengthen coordination between the two countries. The discussions focused on bilateral ties and regional developments, with both sides stressing the importance of closer cooperation to support security and stability in the region.

If this is true, it's madness. Bribes to avoid retaliatory strikes sets a precedent that the most powerful country in the world should not set with this particular regime.

Pres Trump today: Hezbollah's attack on Israel was "small and meaningless" because no one got hurt or killed. Therefore, Israel was wrong to strike back in Beirut. Pres Trump last Tuesday, when Iran downed an Apache helicopter and both pilots survived unharmed:

The irony of Trump's opposition to the strike in Beirut (and reported tirade against Bibi Netanyahu): The IDF's target was a Hezbollah commander who was responsible for planning an operation 20 years ago that led to the kidnapping and murder of 5 American soldiers in Karbala, Iraq. He was arrested and imprisoned in Iraq for his part in the attack but was later released by the Iraqi government in 2012 after the US withdrawal. He was then added to the US list of designated terrorists. After his release, Ali Dakdouk became the commander of the "Golan Network" which oversaw Hezbollah operations in Southwest Syria during the civil war, exposed by Israel in 2019, before returning to Lebanon, where he was killed by the IDF today. Once again, Israel is working on behalf of the American people, and this time, was chastised for the favor.
This is Ali Moussa Dakdouk, a senior Hezbollah commander. - He is personally responsible for a terror attack in 2007 targeting U.S. troops. - He was imprisoned by the U.S. and had a bounty of $5M on his head. - He also managed the “Golan Portfolio” - Hezbollah’s plan to invade and take over northern Israel. Dakdouk was eliminated by the IDF as he led the fighting for Hezbollah in south Lebanon. He will no longer terrorise U.S. troops, nor the peoples of Israel and Lebanon.

Let's be clear on the sequence of events here: 1. Yesterday, Trump announces deal will be signed today, the Iranian regime denied it would be finalized. 2. Hezbollah, an Iranian proxy, fires drones into Israeli territory today, a well-established red line for Israel 3. Israel responds militarily against Hezbollah in the manner previously promised (airstrikes on Beirut) 4. Trump accuses Israel of putting the deal in danger?
President Trump condemns Israeli airstrikes on Beirut (at least publicly) for interfering with his reportedly imminent peace deal with Iran.

After Hezbollah fired attack drones across the border into Israel, the IDF struck Hezbollah targets in the capital of Beirut. The Iranian regime is now threatening retaliation, and the Israeli homefront is preparing for another round of ballistic missile fire.

Despite the ceasefire, and allegedly on the eve of the signing of a deal to end the conflict, Iran is still attacking ships in the Hormuz Strait.
Iran launched multiple one-way attack drones in an attempt to strike commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. forces have downed all of them in recent hours as traffic flow through the strait continues unimpeded. The international trade corridor remains open for transit.
