Summary

Qatari mediators returned to Tehran on Friday, October 30, as part of efforts to reach a deal between the United States and Iran, according to an official briefed on the talks who spoke to Reuters. The talks have been coordinated with Washington. The Financial Times described the trip as a last-ditch effort to broker an interim deal ahead of next week's US midterm elections, aimed at preventing a new round of war. Al Jazeera said the mission seeks to revive a ceasefire deal amid speculation about a possible resumption of hostilities. The Times of Israel, citing an official, reported that the US is said to believe hardline Iranian security council chief Mohsen Rezaei is best placed to head off hostilities. CBS News reported that President Trump predicted the war with Iran is "going to end soon" without offering details.
