"Live from NPR News, I'm Dale Wilman.
US talks with Iran ended Sunday with little accomplished.
The talks in Pakistan came just days after the start of a two-week ceasefire. The hope for the talks was to find a more lasting peace deal. But Vice President J.D. Vance, who led the US delegation, said Iran would not agree to the US terms. "We've had a number of substantive discussions with the Iranians.
That's the good news.
“The bad news is that we have not reached agreement, and I think that's bad news for Iran”
much more than it's bad news for the United States of America. So we go back to the United States having not come to an agreement. We've made very clear what our red lines are, what things we're willing to accommodate them on, and what things we're not willing to accommodate them on. And we've made that as clear as we possibly could, and they have chosen not to accept
our terms." As those talks were underway to US warships, move through the straight of Hormuz. Crane's president, Vladimir Zelensky, has publicly confirmed that Ukrainian teams sent to a sent several Gulf countries, have helped take down Iranian attack drones, and appears you're on a kekisist report from Kiev that Ukraine sent more than 200 anti-drone

Zelensky said he had seen video footage from the Gulf of Ukrainian weapons taking down Iranian shothead drones, which have struck several sites, including US bases in the Middle East over the last month.
“He did not say in which Gulf countries the Ukrainian team shot down these drones, citing”
security reasons. In the last couple of weeks, Zelensky has visited the region, and signed defense deals with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. Russia has been using shothead drones to strike Iranian cities nearly every night, so Ukraine has developed ways to destroy them.
