The implications of the agreement are more clear - not least for Netanyahu. "How can the man who made taking on Iran the centre-piece of Israel's security policy end the war with Iran's regime arguably in a stronger position?" asks our Middle East correspondent Lucy Williamson. Trapped in a new dilemma, he now faces a difficult task in deciding his next steps, she adds: should he defy his key ally, or those in his party and on the far-right who support the war? |

At the World Cup, it's Iran v Iran |
|
| Iran drew 2-2 with New Zealand in LA on Monday, but their most vocal opponents were their own dissidents, not the Kiwis. "They don't represent Iranian people," one protester told the BBC's Shaimaa Khalil. After the final whistle, Iran's team were told to immediately leave for their Mexico base, according to their head coach, leading him to call them the "most oppressed" team. |
