00:07conflict between Iran and Israel. So far at least 224 Iranians and 24 Israelis

00:15have been killed. A new report from Reuters says that Iran is asking the US

00:22to put pressure on Israel to agree to a ceasefire. With the help of Gulf countries

00:28like Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Oman. In return, Iran is offering to be more

00:35flexible in nuclear talks. This comes after heavy airstrikes by Israel on

00:40Iranian territory. Reporter says leaders and top diplomats from the Gulf have

00:46been talking over the phone this weekend, speaking with officials in Tehran,

00:51Washington and other capitals trying to stop the situation from getting worse.

00:56An Iranian source told Reuters that Iran might be open to nuclear negotiations

01:02but only if a ceasefire happens first. In response, Qatar, Oman and Saudi Arabia have

01:09asked the US to urge Israel to agree to the ceasefire so that talks with Iran can

01:15restart. But Iran also told Qatar and Oman clearly it won't negotiate while being

01:23attacked. Reuters also says that Oman is now working on a ceasefire proposal to help

01:30restart US-Iran nuclear talks. It's worth noting that just last month on May 6,

02:01doing to calm things down between Iran and Israel? President Trump replied, well I hope there's going

02:08to be a deal. I think it's a time. We'll see what happens. Sometimes they, Iran and Israel need to figure it out
