- The US and Iran have reached an agreement on a memorandum of understanding for a 60-day extension of the ceasefire and the launch of negotiations on Iran's nuclear program, but President Trump has not yet given his final approval, US officials said. The Iranians passed the deal through their system to obtain all approvals and told the mediators they are ready to sign, the US officials said. -Axios
- An Israeli source: Iran's leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, did NOT approve the agreement, and therefore, Trump did not approve it either. The Parliament Speaker, Gahlibaf, and Foreign Minister, Araghchi, are not authorized, even if they accept the framework; the decision rests with the Supreme Leader. We do not know if any of the parties approved the agreement. The disputes still exist, at least according to the latest update Israel received.

This egregious ceasefire violation by the Iranian regime occurred hours after Iranian forces launched five one-way attack drones that posed a clear threat in and near the Strait of Hormuz. All drones were successfully intercepted by U.S. forces which also prevented a sixth drone launch from an Iranian ground control site in Bandar Abbas.”
- Satellite imagery published on CNN: Iran has already cleared at least 50 access points to 18 missile sites and is gaining access to missile arsenals and launchers—using bulldozers and trucks to clear blocked entrances and allow access to the bases.
