US military carries out new targeted strikes on Iran as Tehran's leaders weigh mediator's proposals
The Associated Press reports new U.S. strikes on Iran on 6 November 2026 that President Donald Trump said targeted an Iranian air defense system, the first since Republicans lost both chambers of Congress in the midterms. Officials said Iran is reviewing Qatari proposals for a two-day trust-building deal covering the U.S. blockade, frozen funds, IAEA inspections, and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, while Iran maintains its own core ceasefire conditions.
