TRUMP SAYS IRAN DEAL MOVING TO 'SECOND STAGE' AT G7 AS TEHRAN ANNOUNCES NEW TALKS FRIDAY IN SWITZERLAND

US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the Iran deal is moving to a second stage, while denying reports that Washington would invest money in Tehran — speaking alongside the Emir of Qatar on the sidelines of the G7 summit in the French town of Evian-les-Bains.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed a new round of talks between Washington and Tehran will begin on Friday in Switzerland, ahead of a formal signing of the memorandum of understanding in Geneva.

US Vice President JD Vance has appeared to confirm that a reported three-hundred-billion-dollar reconstruction fund is under consideration, while Qatar's foreign ministry says no Qatari money has been paid under the framework so far.

UK'S STARMER ANNOUNCES SOCIAL MEDIA BAN FOR UNDER-16S IN WHAT HE CALLS WORLD'S TOUGHEST CHILD PROTECTION MEASURES

British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has announced a ban on social media for under-16s, with enforcement to rely on age-verification technology that the regulator Ofcom has been tasked with rapidly assessing.

Critics including YouTube have warned that blanket bans could push young people towards less safe, unregulated services, while child safety organisations say the current age-checking systems remain far from reliable.

RACHMAN: ISRAEL FACES 'VERY DIFFICULT CHOICES' AS US-IRAN DEAL RISKS UNRAVELLING OVER LEBANON

The United States and Iran have announced an agreement to end hostilities and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, with US President Donald Trump declaring on Truth Social that the deal is complete.

Israel has yet to publicly respond to the agreement, but journalists close to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have already described it as a disaster, according to reports.

President Trump criticised Israeli strikes on Beirut's southern suburbs on Saturday, saying they should not have happened on what he called a special day for the deal.

Gideon Rachman, chief foreign affairs columnist at the Financial Times, says the biggest threat to the agreement may come from a resumption of fighting in Lebanon.

BRITAIN SEIZES RUSSIAN SHADOW FLEET TANKER IN FIRST UK-LED INTERCEPTION IN ENGLISH CHANNEL

British armed forces have seized a sanctioned Russian shadow fleet oil tanker in the English Channel — the first time the United Kingdom has led such an operation to disrupt the oil revenue funding Russia's war in Ukraine.

Royal Marines and National Crime Agency officers boarded the Smyrtos, a tanker carrying more than a hundred thousand tonnes of Russian crude, in a six-hour operation on Sunday. The vessel is now anchored off the Dorset coast.

British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer says he personally ordered the interception, but the opposition has questioned why dozens of shadow fleet vessels were allowed to pass through British waters in recent months.
