Iran launched drone and missile attacks on the UAE, challenging the ceasefire, while the US thwarted attacks on its Navy ships in the Strait of Hormuz and retaliated against Iranian military facilities. US and Iranian negotiators are seeking a deal to end the fighting, but unresolved issues like the nuclear program hinder progress. Trump downplayed the exchange of fire, believing the ceasefire is holding and a deal could be reached ‘any day,’ warning of pain for Iran if a deal isn’t signed.
