Former US President Donald Trump has said he is “very close” to signing a deal with Iran. Meanwhile, an Israeli strike on a Beirut suburb has killed two people and wounded 11 others. Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman, Baghaei, said Tehran is struggling with “changing and contradictory” US positions during ongoing talks. The two events show a complicated moment for the region.
Trump made his statement about a possible deal without giving many details. He also said US troops will remain in the Middle East until “completion.” It is not clear what “completion” means. He did not explain which mission the troops are finishing. The comments come as Iran and the United States have been holding talks. These talks have been happening for some time. But Iran says the US keeps changing its position. Baghaei said this makes it hard for Tehran to agree on anything. The two sides appear to be close but not yet in full agreement. Trump’s words suggest optimism. Iran’s words suggest frustration.
While diplomacy continues, violence has not stopped. An Israeli strike hit a suburb of Beirut. Two people were killed. Eleven others were wounded. Israel has not released a full statement about the strike. But such attacks often target Hezbollah positions. Hezbollah is an Iranian-backed group based in Lebanon. Iran supports Hezbollah with money and weapons. When Israel attacks Hezbollah, Iran sees it as an attack on itself. That is why Iran has promised a “painful response” to this strike. The timing is difficult. Iran is talking to the US while also facing Israeli attacks. This puts Iran in a hard position.
Trump’s promise of a deal may be good news. But the Israeli strike could ruin the talks. Iran may not want to sign a deal while being attacked. The United States has influence over Israel. But the US does not always control Israeli military actions. Trump said US troops will stay until “completion.” That could mean weeks, months, or years. No one knows for sure. The situation is tense. Many countries are watching. A deal would lower tensions. More attacks would raise them.

For now, both diplomacy and violence continue. The world waits to see which one wins.
