US-Israel-Iran War Live Updates: US President Donald Trump’s push to steady the Middle East crisis is colliding with hard realities on the ground, as calls for restraint and negotiations struggle to match the pace of military action.

The fallout has been severe, with more than 300 people killed in Lebanon. At the same time, Beirut has begun indicating a shift in its own stance, with moves targeting armed groups seen as part of a broader attempt to align with diplomatic efforts. Iran has responded with sharp warnings, arguing that ongoing attacks undermine the very basis of negotiations and risk collapsing an already fragile truce. In a defiant statement, Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei said on Thursday that Iran would be "resolute in avenging" the deaths of his father Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and the country's "martyrs" and "will take management of the Strait of Hormuz into a new phase."
