Iran live updates: Trump says US is winning war, 'can leave right now'
Talks between the U.S. and Iran have stalled despite the two countries signing a memorandum of understanding in June, aimed at ending the war.
The two sides have since exchanged strikes. The U.S. says it is enforcing a blockade preventing any Iranian ships from entering or leaving the country, while Iran claims the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.
The U.S. also continues to accuse Iran of targeting commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, a flashpoint in the war.
Meanwhile, the Iranian-backed Houthis repeatedly attacked Saudi Arabian military and oil infrastructure facilities. This lead to intensified fighting in Yemen between the Houthis and Saudi-backed Yemeni forces. Saudi Arabia has also gathered an international coalition to fight off the Houthis.

UK says it will fly defensive missions over Saudi Arabia
The British Defense Ministry announced on Tuesday that it will "provide additional defensive military support" to Saudi Arabia amid escalating attacks by Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen.
In a statement, the ministry said its forces "will fly defensive counter air missions to support the protection of Saudi cities and critical national infrastructure against aerial attack, using RAF Typhoon fighter jets."
The jets will operate defensively and "will not conduct offensive strikes against the Houthis," the ministry said. The Typhoons will be supported by an A400M military transport aircraft and British military advisers, the statement said.
Defence Secretary Wes Streeting described the Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia as "despicable," adding that the recent Houthi strikes on the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh "shows the lengths the Houthis are going to escalate the situation in the region."
