What to know

  • Rubio says Trump has not decided whether to resume US strikes on Iran, despite reports he could act after Tuesday's US midterm elections.
  • Qatar is mediating talks between the US and Iran, with Iranian officials meeting Qatari envoys in Tehran for over 12 hours and then continuing talks in Doha.
  • Rubio emphasizes Trump's stated preference for a diplomatic solution while reiterating US military capability and citing Iranian threats to shipping and regional infrastructure.
  • Iran's supreme leader has publicly warned the US and Israel against launching new attacks, keeping tensions high even as mediation continues.

“The Iranian regime is basically arguing that 'unless we get what we want, not only will we blow up ships, but we will destroy the energy infrastructure of our neighbors and the entire region.'”
