Trump declares war with Iran over, says Iran agreed to never hold nuclear weapons

U.S. President Donald Trump said the war with Iran is finished and that Tehran has agreed never to pursue nuclear weapons, according to i24NEWS. Iran responded that no final agreement has been reached and mediators are working to bridge gaps. Netanyahu said he spoke with Trump, who committed that the final deal will include removal of enriched material, limits on missile production, and an end to Iran's support for its proxies.

U.S. President Donald Trump declared this morning that the war with Iran is over and that Tehran has agreed never to hold nuclear weapons, as reported by i24NEWS. The statement follows a series of diplomatic announcements throughout the overnight hours that brought the U.S.-Iran negotiations to what Trump called an 'almost final stage,' as The Zioneer reported at 23:08 and 23:23 Jerusalem last night.

Iran pushed back, telling i24NEWS that no final agreement has yet been reached and that mediators are working to close remaining gaps. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he spoke with Trump, who committed that the final deal will include removal of enriched material, dismantling of enrichment infrastructure, limits on missile production, and an end to Iran's support for its proxies. Netanyahu's office confirmed the conversation, and Netanyahu expressed appreciation for Trump's commitment.

A signing ceremony is expected in Europe within days, per Trump's earlier statements. What remains open: whether Iran will formally accept Trump's claim that the war is over, and whether the final deal will indeed include all the elements Trump committed to Netanyahu. Iran's pushback suggests a final text has not been agreed.
