What to know

  • Iran's Araghchi says the outcome of diplomacy to avert all-out war with the U.S. depends on Washington's answers to 'Iranian questions'.
  • Iranian negotiators are reportedly in Qatar discussing a proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within two days if U.S. conditions are met, with no direct U.S.-Iran talks underway.
  • Despite an October 2025 ceasefire, near-daily Israeli strikes in Gaza continue; more than 1,570 Palestinians have been killed since the truce, pushing the overall war toll above 74,500.
  • Parallel flashpoints persist across the region: a Qatari LNG vessel was struck in the Persian Gulf and Houthi rebels report Saudi-led strikes on a Yemeni medical school.
