Iran suspends framework deal with US after deadly attacks on Jordan

On July 18, 2026, Iran announced it is suspending its framework agreement with the United States, following attacks on Jordan that killed two US soldiers. The attacks also drew threats from Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei, who warned of 'unforgettable lessons.' US President Trump commented on the soldiers' deaths, saying it was 'for the good of the country.' Additionally, Kuwait came under fire in the escalating conflict. The suspension marks a significant deterioration in US-Iran relations.
