US and Iran agree to interim ceasefire deal with disputed terms on Israeli presence in Lebanon.
The US and Iran reached a memorandum of understanding to pause the ongoing war, with a formal signing scheduled for Friday in Switzerland. Iran and Hezbollah assert the deal requires an Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon, while Israeli officials reject this and insist their forces will remain. The conflicting interpretations have created uncertainty about whether the ceasefire extends to the Israel-Hezbollah front.
