In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:

Just hours after issuing a 48-hour ultimatum, President Trump announces a temporary pause on planned strikes against Iran’s energy infrastructure, citing “productive” talks with regime officials. But Tehran is denying any negotiations are taking place, raising serious questions about who—if anyone—the U.S. is actually speaking with behind the scenes.

Counter-terror police in London are investigating an arson attack targeting ambulances belonging to a Jewish charity. An Iranian-linked group has claimed responsibility, adding a new layer of concern about Tehran’s potential reach beyond the Middle East and into Western cities.
