00:16and Lebanon.

00:27Shortly after Trump announced plans for renewed negotiations with Iran, U.S. forces seized an Iranian-flagged cargo ship near
00:36the Strait of Hormuz, raising questions about the future of those talks.
00:40Iran has condemned the seizure as piracy and indicated it has no current plans to participate in upcoming negotiations with
