Iran's chief negotiator says Americans voted 'no to war'
The BBC reports that Iran's chief negotiator, parliament speaker Mohammed Bagher Ghalibaf, called the US midterm results a vote of "NO TO WAR", while Donald Trump told Fox News that Republican losses were partly due to the conflict and petrol prices and warned the US and Israel could return to all-out war if no deal is reached. Iranian strikes on shipping have kept the Strait of Hormuz largely closed, and BBC Verify found no evidence for the Revolutionary Guard Corps' claim that four tankers were destroyed by mines there.
