MOU term sheet pulls Lebanon into deal watch

Guardian reporting, citing Mehr, says a draft U.S.-Iran MOU lists an all-fronts stop including Lebanon, blockade relief, sanctions suspension, frozen-fund sequencing, and a 30-day Hormuz reopening path. Axios and CBS frame the text as close but still dependent on final signoff.

Why this matters. The deal watch moved from aircraft logistics to terms that collide with Israeli red lines on missiles and proxy support. The watchpoint is whether signed text reconciles Lebanon, Hormuz, sanctions, and nuclear sequencing rather than leaving each side to sell a different version.
