West Asia War: US-Iran Talks In Limbo? Israel Intensifies Strikes On LebanonAdded:
Let's first get to the latest coming in from West Asia. While the world is betting hopes on the US Iran ceasefire agreement and a potential deal, the situation is escalating in Lebanon.
Israel has intensified its attacks on Lebanon marking the deepest incursion into the country in more than a quarter century. Here's a report.
>> The West Asia war is still in a state of limbo.
President Donald Trump is in no hurry to make a decision [music] on ceasefire on Iran and has asked for several amendments to the deal.
>> Getting what we want slowly. Very tough negotiators. Uh takes a long time. Uh I'm in no hurry. I'd like to say I'm in a hurry because you know what? Gasoline prices are going to come tumbling down, but if you're going to be in a hurry, you're not going to make a good deal.
And uh slowly but surely we're getting I think what we want. And if we don't get what we want, we're going to end it a different way.
>> On the other hand, Iran has made its stance clear. That no agreement [music] will be approved that is not on their terms.
Meanwhile, ships continue to remain stranded in the Strait of Hormuz and [music] shipping costs are rising exponentially.
According to Iran, restrictions in the Strait of Hormuz remain in force.
However, President [music] Trump has claimed that a naval blockade would be lifted.
Though attacks and strikes between the nations continue [music] to test the fragile ceasefire negotiations, America has still expressed [music] optimism towards the deal.
>> So, Iran knows very, very clearly what our expectations are, and that's on the the the negotiating team to deliver. Uh they're coming in our direction. The talks have been productive. I think they they know where it needs to go, and I'm I'm quite confident with this >> With talks ongoing, life is slowly going back to normal in Iran.
Iran has now restored gas production at three offshore platforms [music] in the South Pars gas field.
Amid this, what caught eyes all over the world was a claim that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian [music] had resigned, which was later refuted.
While US and Iran are working to put an end to the war, Israel is doing the exact [music] opposite.
Things have escalated massively between Israel and Lebanon.
>> [music] >> Israeli troops have captured the Beaufort castle in southern Lebanon.
This is the deepest incursion into the country in more than a quarter century.
This has resulted in a major escalation just days before the nations are set to hold direct talks in Washington.
While uncertainties loom over the potential US Iran deal and its frameworks, [music] Israel and Lebanon are still on extreme terms.
Washington talks are in increased focus as the countries continue to navigate these conflicts. [music] Bureau report, NDTV World.
