The clock is ticking on US President Donald Trump's threat to launch military strikes against Iran - but even if he gives the green light to his generals and admirals, will they achieve his aims? Hopes of a diplomatic solution rest on last-ditch talks over Tehran's nuclear program in Switzerland between Iranian officials and American negotiators, headed by special envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. Trump has insisted he wants a peaceful outcome, but Iran appears resolute in not abandoning uranium enrichment and rejects US and western claims it is aiming to build a nuclear bomb.

Trump claims Iran has ‘no plans’ for executing protesters as US weighs potential military strikes

US President Donald Trump claims Iran has halted plans for executing detained protesters, but refused to take the idea of military action off the table.

"No, we're going to watch and see what the process is.

Netanyahu submits request for pardon during ongoing corruption trial

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has asked the country's president to grant him a pardon from corruption charges — seeking to end a long-running trial that has bitterly divided the nation. Netanyahu, who has been at war against the country's legal system over the charges, said the request would help unify the country at a time of momentous changes in the region. But it immediately triggered denunciations from his opponents, who said it would weaken Israel's democratic institutions and send a dangerous message that he is above the rule of law.
