US-Iran talks stall as Hezbollah rejects Lebanon truce
What's new: Iran reported no tangible progress, while fresh attacks killed at least 8 in Lebanon and hit Kuwait and Bahrain.
US-Iran efforts to reach a ceasefire showed no progress after Hezbollah rejected a US-brokered truce in Lebanon and fighting flared across the region. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said no tangible progress had been made in negotiations, while President Donald Trump insisted talks were in their final stage. On June 3, Iran fired missiles and drones at Kuwait and Bahrain after the US struck an oil tanker bound for Iran, killing one person and wounding dozens at Kuwait's main airport. In Lebanon, Israeli strikes killed at least eight people, the Lebanese Health Ministry said, and Israel's military reported rocket fire from Hezbollah. The setbacks add to pressure on Trump's bid to end the conflict as disruption in the Strait of Hormuz threatens oil supplies.
