AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

US-Iran Talks: Mediators say Washington and Tehran are nearing a memorandum that could extend the ceasefire by 60 days, with a gradual reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and a staged path for Iran’s uranium and sanctions issues—while Iran insists the nuclear file comes later. Trump’s Deadline: Trump says it’s a “solid 50/50” whether he signs a deal or resumes bombing, with a decision expected by Sunday as the White House and Pentagon reportedly prepare “plan B.” Lebanon’s Cost of War: Finance Minister Yassin Jaber warns Lebanon has racked up about $20 billion in war damage and expects GDP to shrink another 7–10% in 2026. Central Bank Move: Lebanon’s Central Bank asks banks to apply a rule letting mothers open bank accounts for minor children. Security Shockwaves: Hezbollah claims cheap drones are slipping through Israel’s defenses, and Israel warns of fresh strikes in Lebanon as the wider region stays on edge.
