Trump to review 14-point plan; Israel pounds Lebanon
By Staff Reporter
US President Donald Trump says he will “soon be reviewing the plan Iran has just sent to us”, but does not think he can make a deal.
The comments come after Iran sent a 14-point plan to the US, calling for guarantees of non-aggression, the lifting of a naval blockade and an end to the war “on all fronts“, including in Lebanon.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says it is on standby for a return to war with the US, saying a resumption of hostilities is “likely”, as “evidence shows that [the US] is not committed to any agreements or treaties”.
Israeli forces continue to bombard Lebanon, killing several people and damaging a Catholic convent in Yaroun, as the death toll since March 2 rises to 2,659 people.
