begin quote from CBS NEWS:
What to know about the Iran war today:
- Iran
has offered a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to commercial shipping
if the U.S. drops its military blockade of Iranian ports and vessels.
But the offer apparently includes no concessions on Iran's nuclear
program, which President Trump has insisted must be dismantled as part
of any agreement to end the two-month war.
- Hezbollah's
leader has flatly rejected the U.S.-brokered negotiations between
Israel and Lebanon, "and their outcomes," raising new doubt over the
tenuous ceasefire in the parallel war and further complicating prospects
for a U.S.-Iran deal.
- Mr. Trump abruptly called off plans
over the weekend to send senior envoys to Pakistan for a second round
of direct talks with Iranian officials, insisting his administration has
"all the cards" and if Tehran wants "to talk, they can come to us, or
they can call us." The move has left prospects for the Pakistan-led diplomacy deeply in doubt, as Iran's foreign minister met with President Vladimir Putin in Russia on Monday.
