US-Iran Conflict Pauses as Ceasefire Talks Continue
Iran and the United States have both stopped attacking each other for the past two nights.
Iran said it stopped because the US did, as their strategy is to retaliate.
The US might be pausing because they are running low on weapons and don't want a bigger war.
Iran warned that if the US starts attacking again, the war will get worse.
There are also talks about negotiating, but it's not clear if that will happen.
The situation is calm for now, but it's important to see if this lasts or if more conflicts happen in the future.
