Iran has added a demand to its negotiations with the United States that any agreement bar Israel from carrying out further strikes on Iran, Yemen, Iraq, and Lebanon — but not Gaza, according to a single source report. American officials did not deny the claim, stating a final decision rests with President Trump's sole discretion.
A single source with no named journalists reports that Iran has inserted a sweeping territorial demand into its ongoing negotiations with the United States. According to the report, Tehran insists that any agreement explicitly bar Israel from conducting strikes on Iran, Yemen, Iraq, and Lebanon. Notably, Gaza is excluded from the demand, the channel states. American officials cited in the report did not deny the claim, responding that the final decision belongs to President Trump's sole discretion.
The report emerges against the backdrop of weeks of intense US-Iran talks in Oman and other venues, with parallel Israeli concerns that a deal may constrain Jerusalem's freedom of action. As The Zioneer has reported, President Trump has told Prime Minister Netanyahu in recent days that Israel 'will have to accept' an American deal with Iran. The demand, if confirmed, would go beyond Iran's earlier reported attempts to link the nuclear negotiations to the Lebanon-Hezbollah file.
The report is single-sourced and unverified; no official confirmation from either Washington or Tehran has been published. The desk marks the claim as Developing, pending corroboration from independent or official sources.
