00:00The United States and Iran will hold their next round of nuclear talks on Thursday in Geneva, facilitator Oman confirmed
00:07on Sunday, signaling hope for progress despite U.S. military build-up and renewed protests in Tehran.
00:15Oman previously hosted the indirect talks on the Islamic Republic's nuclear program and facilitated the latest round in Geneva last
00:23week.

00:32working on a draft proposal for an agreement that would avert military action.
00:37The latest development comes as U.S. threats of military action have multiplied since a nationwide protest movement in Iran
00:45sparked a crackdown that rights groups say killed thousands.
00:48On Sunday, Iranian students gathered for fresh pro- and anti-government rallies commemorating those killed following similar gatherings the
00:57day before.
00:58U.S. President Donald Trump warned on Friday that limited strikes against Iran are possible, and both Iran and the
01:05U.S. have signaled they are prepared for war if the talks on Tehran's nuclear program fail.
