Following President Trump's announcement that planned U.S. strikes on Iran had been canceled, Iranian state-affiliated Tasnim News dismissed the development, noting that Trump has repeatedly claimed an agreement with Iran was imminent. Tasnim mocked the latest announcement, stating that Trump had declared a deal was near dozens of times over the past two months and sarcastically suggested that, "in his imagination," Vice President Vance had already been sent to Pakistan multiple times within a matter of days. The outlet added that any reports of a possible agreement should be treated with caution until Iranian officials formally announce an understanding.

President Trump announced the nomination of Jay Clayton, the current U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York and former SEC Chairman, to serve as the next Director of National Intelligence. • Clayton previously served as Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission and also led the law firm Sullivan & Cromwell. • Trump praised Clayton as one of the most respected figures in the legal community and urged the Senate to confirm him as soon as possible.

Israeli officials expressed surprise at President Trump's announcement. One official told i24NEWS that Israeli officials are learning about the developments largely through Trump's public statements and are awaiting Iran's official response before assessing the situation. The official noted that previous experience has shown that such announcements do not always translate into a finalized agreement.

U.S., Iran Narrow Gaps As Mediators Push Toward Possible Deal Negotiations continued late into Wednesday night in Tehran as Qatari envoy Ali Al-Thawadi and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi worked to bridge the remaining gaps between the United States and Iran, according to a report by Axios. • Sources briefed on the talks said Qatari and Iranian officials believed they had reached an agreed-upon text that the United States would also accept. • The remaining issues reportedly centered on the release of Iran's frozen assets, arrangements for reopening the Strait of Hormuz during a proposed 60-day ceasefire, and how negotiations over Iran's nuclear program would be conducted during that period. • Iranian officials reportedly told several countries on Thursday that the talks had produced an agreement in principle, though final approval was still required from Iran's supreme leadership. • Separately, an informed source told Iran's Fars News Agency that no text or memorandum of understanding has been approved with the United States, appearing to contradict reports that negotiators had already agreed on a draft framework.

TRUMP: The terms that Iran leaked out to the Fake News have NOTHING to do with the terms that were agreed to, in writing. What they said, including their weak and pathetic statement on having a deal, bears no relation to the truth. Very dishonorable people to deal with. With them, there is no such thing as dealing in good faith. AMAZING! Also, their totally rebuffed Drone attack last night against Indian Ships leaving the Hormuz Strait is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. They better get their act together, and FAST!

Hudson Institute senior fellow Rebeccah Heinrichs discusses President Trump's push for a deal with Iran and explains why she remains skeptical that a lasting agreement is within reach.

A senior U.S. administration official says a proposed deal with Iran would require Tehran to dismantle its nuclear program, destroy and remove nuclear material, and end funding for terrorist groups. According to the official, no Iranian funds would be released until Iran fulfills its obligations under the agreement. The deal would also ensure the Strait of Hormuz remains open to international shipping. “This is a performance-based deal,” the official said, emphasizing that any sanctions relief or release of funds would come only after Iran meets the agreed conditions.

The IDF says troops from the 769th Brigade completed an operation targeting Hezbollah strongholds in the Dabin area of southern Lebanon, a key hub used to plan attacks and anti-tank fire against Israel.

Since the start of Operation Roaring Lion, more than 30 terrorists have been eliminated in the area.

A federal judge has indefinitely blocked the Trump administration’s $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund, extending a temporary halt that was set to expire Friday and giving the administration one week to submit a statement confirming the fund will not move forward. U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema of the Eastern District of Virginia issued a preliminary injunction blocking the fund. The Justice Department had established the $1.776 billion fund to compensate individuals who say they were harmed by what the administration describes as the “lawfare” and “weaponization” of investigations and criminal cases against them.

Vice President JD Vance pushed back on reports surrounding a potential U.S.-Iran deal, saying Iran will not receive any cash simply for signing an agreement and that any economic benefits would come only after Tehran fulfills its obligations.

🚨YWN EXCLUSIVE: STOLEN MANCHESTER SIFREI TORAH TO BE RETURNED AFTER REMARKABLE TURN OF EVENTS • Two Sifrei Torah stolen several months ago from Beis Medrash Torah Etz Chaim in Manchester are in the process of being returned to the shul after an extraordinary chain of events led to their recovery. • The sifrei Torah were discovered outside a church, where a member of the church contacted a local Jewish community figure after recognizing their significance.
