Middle East crisis live: Iran says handing over enriched uranium a non-starter' as strait of Hormuz remains shut
"We have had progress but there is still a big distance between us, referring to talks last weekend. We made progress in the negotiations, but there are many gaps and some fundamental points remain."
"Trump says Iran cannot make use of its nuclear rights but doesn't say for what crime. Who is he to deprive a nation of its rights?"
"Contrary to Trump's earlier claims, Iran will not hand over its enriched uranium to the US."
"An Israeli soldier was killed in southern Lebanon in an incident that severely wounded another soldier and moderately injured four more."
Iran's top negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, reported progress in talks with the US, yet acknowledged substantial gaps on nuclear matters and the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian criticized Donald Trump's stance on Iran's nuclear rights, questioning the legitimacy of depriving a nation of its rights. Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh stated that Iran will not surrender its enriched uranium to the US. In Lebanon, violence persists despite a ceasefire, with Israeli military actions resulting in casualties and home demolitions, while a UN peacekeeper was killed in an attack.
