The Iranian Mehr news agency has published what it describes as a draft Iran–US agreement aimed at establishing a framework to end hostilities across multiple fronts, including Lebanon.
The report has not been independently verified by official US or Iranian government sources.
Ceasefire and negotiations plan
According to Mehr, the proposed Iran-US deal outlines a “permanent and immediate cessation of hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon”.
It also reportedly includes a 60-day negotiation period focused on reaching an agreement on nuclear issues and the full lifting of United States sanctions.
Frozen assets and financial provisions
Citing a source within Iran’s negotiating team, the agency claims the draft includes the release of $24 billion in frozen Iranian funds during the final 60-day negotiation period.
Half of this amount, according to the report, would be made available to Iran before negotiations officially begin.
Background to ongoing tensions
The proposed framework comes amid continued diplomatic efforts between Tehran and Washington over Iran’s nuclear programme and regional conflicts.
Previous rounds of discussions have repeatedly stalled, with both sides maintaining significant differences over sanctions relief and verification mechanisms.
The latest claims highlight the fluid and unconfirmed nature of negotiations, with no official confirmation from either side at this stage.
