US-Iran Talks Amid Regional Drone Attacks and Escalating Tensions
The United States and Iran are reportedly engaged in 'good talks' to de-escalate tensions, despite conflicting reports and ongoing drone attacks by Iran-backed proxies on neighboring countries like Saudi Arabia and Jordan, and an alleged Ukrainian attack on an Iranian vessel in the Caspian Sea.
