Iran says it is suspending commitments to interim deal with US as the two exchange attacks

Iran suspends U.S. deal commitments, citing violations, amid reciprocal strikes that have killed at least 50 people and wounded over 500, Iranian authorities report.

  • On Saturday, July 18, 2026, Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi announced that Tehran has suspended all commitments under the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding, accusing the United States of violating the agreement.
  • Intensified military exchanges between Washington and Tehran prompted the suspension, following a seventh consecutive night of U.S. strikes targeting surveillance and military logistics infrastructure.
  • U.S. airstrikes destroyed a desalination plant in Iran, cutting water supplies to about 10,000 people, while Iranian strikes in Kuwait damaged power generation units and an oil facility.
  • Oil prices climbed above $86 a barrel as shipping through the Strait of Hormuz fell to a three-week low, while the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps warned nations hosting U.S. forces to be "prepared to receive a corresponding response."
  • Mediation efforts remain stalled as the breakdown of the Islamabad agreement leaves future de-escalation uncertain, with the conflict increasingly focused on control of the vital Strait of Hormuz.
