US-Iran war LIVE: A banner depicting US President Donald Trump is held aloft as mourners gather during funeral prayers held as part of the dayslong funeral ceremonies for the slain Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and members of his family outside the Imam Khomeini Mosalla Grand Mosque in Tehran, Iran, Sunday, July 5, 2026.
US-Iran war LIVE: Despite two days of clashes that threatened to derail an already fragile ceasefire, technical talks between the US and Iran are continuing, a US official said. The US remains committed to finding a solution with Iran, the official said Thursday, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the matter.
The comments are likely to calm fears of a return to full-scale conflict after the US carried out fresh strikes on Iranian targets in retaliation for what it said were attacks by Tehran on ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran responded by targeting US military bases in the region on each of the past two nights.
Amid the renewed violence, Trump said on Wednesday that the ceasefire was “over,” but added that he would not prevent negotiations from moving forward.
Talks between the US and Iran were postponed this week as the Islamic Republic observed several days of funeral rites for former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who was killed in an airstrike on the opening day of the US-Israeli military campaign.

US-Iran war LIVE: US-Iran truce hangs by a thread after fresh strikes, sanctions
US-Iran war LIVE: A two-day exchange of airstrikes and the reimposition of US oil sanctions have pushed the fragile US-Iran truce brokered by President Donald Trump into uncertainty.
While the ceasefire has not been formally abandoned, recent developments have cast serious doubt over its future.
The memorandum of understanding, which took effect on June 18, was intended to end hostilities, provide Iran with sanctions relief and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. So far, it has failed to fully achieve any of those goals.
Although Trump declared on Wednesday that the deal was “over,” it has not been officially revoked, and some of its provisions continue to be observed.
