Trump cancels planned military strikes on Iran and announces deal is imminent.
President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that he canceled planned military strikes against Iran, stating that the final points of a peace agreement had been approved by Iranian leadership and regional partners. The announcement followed two days of reciprocal strikes between the U.S. and Iran and came hours after Trump had threatened to attack Iran "very hard" and seize its oil infrastructure. A U.S. naval blockade remains in place pending a formal signing ceremony.
