US Iran War News Live Updates: Iran FM Araghchi meets PM Modi in New Delhi

US Iran War News: The escalating standoff between the United States and Iran has entered a critical phase, with military escalation, diplomatic friction and mounting tensions in the Strait of Hormuz drawing global attention. US President Donald Trump has repeatedly maintained that “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon,” saying the issue outweighs concerns over market volatility and rising prices in the US economy. Tehran, meanwhile, has criticised Washington, with Iranian state media reporting that Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi described distrust in US actions as the biggest obstacle to peace during talks with Norway’s deputy foreign minister in Tehran.The regional fallout continues to deepen as the leader of Hezbollah urged the Lebanon government to withdraw from planned direct talks with Israel in Washington this week, calling them a concession and advocating indirect negotiations instead. Lebanon and Israel are expected to hold two days of talks beginning Thursday in a bid to prevent further escalation after the latest Israel-Hezbollah conflict that erupted following the Iran war, while also discussing the future of relations between the two countries, which have officially remained at war since 1948.
