Amidst ongoing US military actions against Iran, diplomatic signals regarding a potential agreement remain inconsistent. Iran's Revolutionary Guards have claimed retaliatory attacks on US facilities in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan. Earlier, former US President Donald Trump and a Pakistani mediator suggested a US-Iran agreement could be signed on Sunday, possibly in Europe, with implications for the Strait of Hormuz. However, Trump subsequently denied the specific terms of any such deal as reported by Iranian media, while Iran maintained no final accord had been reached. Egypt has called on both Washington and Tehran to pursue a diplomatic resolution, recalling Trump's previous cancellation of strikes and prior threats of "very hard" strikes and seizing "total control of their oil and gas markets."
