Mediators from Egypt, Pakistan, and Turkey dropped a draft proposal on Sunday, pushing for a 45-day ceasefire and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran and the United States got the details but haven't hit back with any response yet. The idea is to buy time for real talks towards something permanent. Tensions keep climbing with fresh strikes. Iranian state media says the head of intelligence for their revolutionary guard got taken out in an Israeli air strike right in Tehran on Monday. Meanwhile, attacks hit the massive South Par's natural gas field and Iran points fingers at the U.S. and Israel. The human toll is heavy over 1900 dead in Iran alone, plus dozens more across the region. Markets are jittery too, with U.S. stocks barely moving and oil prices swing wild as Trump's Tuesday deadline looms for bombing power plants and bridges if the Strait State shut. In a bold move, the U.S. pulled off a high-risk rescue inside Iran for a downed F-15 pilot.

Ambassador Mike Huckabee shouted out Israel's military and Mossad for intel support, though no boots on the ground from them. Trump doubled down on social media, calling Tuesday power plant day and bridge day all in one. With no word on the ceasefire and strikes flying, this powder keg could blow wider any moment. I'm Cory with the story, and you've been listening to Dallas News today, AI-powered local news.
