WRAPUP 1-Iran studying deal to halt war as stalemate persists
Tehran has not yet answered the final text as U.S.-brokered talks seek to extend the ceasefire and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
- On Tuesday, Iran reviewed a proposed agreement with the United States to halt the war between the two countries, Iran's Mehr news reported, after President Donald Trump said talks to reach a deal were continuing.
- The conflict has hardened into a stalemate more than three months after the United States and Israel launched strikes, leaving the Strait of Hormuz largely shut and pushing up global energy prices.
- Iran is taking a "stern" approach to the proposed final text, citing a history of United States non-compliance, while Tehran seeks access to billions in oil revenues and a lifting of port blockades.
- Shipping group MSC reported one of its vessels was struck by two projectiles in Iraq's Umm Qasr port on Monday, an attack Revolutionary Guards claimed in retaliation for a Gulf of Oman incident.
- Despite United States mediation, Israel continued strikes in southern Lebanon on Tuesday, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces domestic criticism over ceasefire agreements ahead of an election later this year.
