Major Update On Possible US-Iran Deal to End War

The U.S. strikes were near the Iranian port and navy base at Bandar Abbas, the official said.

American and Iranian forces have clashed in other ways since a cease-fire took effect approximately six weeks ago.

But the strikes on Monday occurred as Iranian officials gathered in Qatar for negotiations on ending the war.

Iran said Monday that Tehran and Washington have struck understandings on many subjects in negotiations over a deal for ending the war, but warned that a final deal is not imminent.
