Trump Halts Iran Strikes Again, Citing Renewed Talks

President Donald Trump said Saturday he would halt new planned attacks on Iran, the latest in a series of last-minute reversals that have defined the five-month conflict. Trump canceled strikes after claiming Mideast allies reached preliminary deal parameters, including reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Past pauses have been short-lived, with attacks resuming days or hours later. The conflict has driven up oil and basic goods prices.
