US and Iran inch towards short-term deal to end war
The US and Iran are reportedly inching closer to a short-term deal to end the war, as both sides scale back ambitions for a broader agreement amid deep divisions. Officials said Iran is expected to respond to the proposal soon, with a framework set to unfold in three stages. These include formally ending the war, resolving the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz and launching a 30-day window for talks on a broader deal. US President Donald Trump has expressed optimism, saying Iran is seeking to settle very badly and that it will all work out very quickly. However, one Iranian lawmaker has described the proposal as "more of an American wish list than a reality". Toni Waterman reports from Washington DC.
