Yesterday's key developments:

Iran's chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said that Iran was pursuing dialogue with the United States, but remained ready for war if the “dialogue is not implemented”.

• US envoy Steve Witkoff and President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner met Qatari mediators in Doha on Tuesday for discussions on negotiations with Iran.

• Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited troops in southern Lebanon, vowing that his country's forces would stay in the area as long as Iran-backed Hezbollah remained a "threat".
