US-Israel-Iran War Latest News: As per reports, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is still trying to influence the US–Iran agreement even after US President Donald Trump signed a 14-point Memorandum of Understanding with Iran and started a 60-day negotiation process. Reportedly, Israeli officials say Netanyahu does not trust Iran and believes it will not accept strict limits on its nuclear programme. He has held this view for many years and has repeatedly warned that Iran is close to developing nuclear weapons, even though international nuclear agencies and US intelligence reports have often disagreed with this claim.

Netanyahu is also trying to influence discussions in Washington. He is doing this through conservative media voices and supporters of Israel in US politics. Some pro-Israel commentators have criticised the agreement, saying it is unclear and may financially help Iran. Netanyahu is also expected to work with friendly US senators to push for tougher rules in the deal. However, support in US politics is changing. Some Republican leaders who earlier supported strong action against Iran are now saying the agreement could be good for the United States.

A key part of the agreement is about Lebanon. It calls for stopping all military action immediately and permanently, including in Lebanon, and asks both sides to respect Lebanon’s borders and sovereignty. But many things are still unclear. Israel is not part of the agreement, which is only between the US and Iran. It is also not clear how the ceasefire will be enforced or whether Iran must stop supporting Hezbollah. The agreement also does not clearly mention Iran’s wider support for armed groups in the region.

Israeli leaders have reportedly told the United States that Israel does not consider itself part of the US–Iran agreement. Even though Israel has reduced some military activity in Lebanon due to pressure from Washington, Netanyahu says Israel must protect its security at all times. After the deal was announced, he said threats from Iran and its allies still exist and that Israel has created security zones in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria to protect its people.
Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz also said that Israeli forces will stay in key security areas for an unlimited time to protect the country from militant groups.

Even after the agreement was announced, Israeli military action in Lebanon has continued.

This shows that tensions in the region are still very high.
Uncertain Future of the US Iran Agreement
As per reports, US–Iran agreement is still in the early stage, and many details are not final. Israel is not part of the deal and continues to take its own security actions. At the same time, political opinions in the US are divided, which makes it unclear how strong or effective the final agreement will be.
