United States and Iran deal seems to be on the brink of collapse as President Donald Trump issued a strong warning ahead of a critical ceasefire deadline. Trump said that if a deal is not reached, there could be serious consequences, as negotiations hang in the balance. The warning comes as US officials prepare for another round of talks, with uncertainty over Iran’s participation. The ceasefire window is closing fast, and both sides remain far apart on key issues.

A powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck northern Japan off the Sanriku Coast, triggering tsunami warnings and urgent evacuation orders across coastal regions. Authorities warned that waves up to 3 metres could hit parts of Iwate and Hokkaido. Around 40 minutes after the quake, an 80-centimetre tsunami wave was recorded at a port in Kuji, raising concerns that additional waves may follow. Strong tremors were felt as far as Tokyo, hundreds of kilometres away.
