Revealed: Iran pushed for final-hour changes before US deal, held off on Israel strikes over Lebanon

Iran reportedly secured last-minute changes to a proposed U.S.-Iran agreement, with provisions related to the Strait of Hormuz and Lebanon emerging as key issues during the final phase of negotiations. According to Iran’s Tasnim News Agency, Tehran pushed for revisions concerning Hormuz management and successfully secured language affirming Lebanon’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. Iranian sources claim these additions influenced Tehran’s decision-making following recent Israeli strikes on Beirut. The reported developments come amid wider diplomatic efforts to end regional hostilities and could have significant implications for future U.S.-Iran relations, Gulf security and the Lebanon front.
