JERUSALEM, June 19, 2026 (AP) — Talks between the U.S. and Iran were called off Friday after intense fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, officials said, raising questions about an initial agreement to end the war in Iran. Israel and the militant group later agreed to renew their ceasefire, three officials said. Word of the ceasefire came from two regional officials and a U.S. official. The truce was mediated by Qatar, the U.S. and Iran, the regional officials said. The three officials were not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity. Hezbollah did not
India rate panel downplays case for pre‑emptive rate move in meeting minutes
MUMBAI, June 19 (Reuters) – India’s rate panel chose to adopt a wait and watch approach in keeping interest rates on hold earlier this month, to see if higher oil and food prices are likely to lead to more generalised inflation, minutes of the committee’s meeting released on Friday showed.

The panel had, however, voted unanimously to keep the policy repo

Trump approval on Iran low even as tentative deal to end fighting emerged, new AP-NORC poll finds
WASHINGTON, June 19, 2026 (AP) — Most Americans continue to disapprove of how President Donald Trump is handling Iran, while his overall presidential approval holds steady, according to a new AP-NORC poll that was conducted as Trump suggested a deal with Iran had been reached. The poll points to just how unpopular the three-month war with Iran has been with Americans, even as Trump turned abruptly from threatening Iran to reopening negotiations. Support for the president’s handling of the war remains lopsidedly partisan. About two-thirds, 65%, of U.S. adults disapprove of how Trump is handling issues with Iran. But while
