U.S. and Iran sign interim war deal

AP reported Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed an initial agreement calling for Iran to dilute highly enriched uranium and for sanctions relief that let Tehran sell oil freely. L'Orient reported the MOU reopened Hormuz, started a 60-day negotiation clock and left Lebanon fighting as the immediate test.

Why this matters. The MOU changed the ledger from battlefield escalation to enforceable receipts: uranium handling, oil sanctions, Hormuz transit and Lebanon restraint became measurable deal tests.
