Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi told CBS News that Iran had agreed never to hold nuclear material that could make a bomb and to blend down its enriched uranium stockpile irreversibly, and that a "peace deal is within our reach" if diplomacy was given space.
Why it matters
The mediator's public account of Iranian concessions was published less than an hour after Trump had approved the strike, which began before the technical talks planned for Vienna the following week.
