Iran live updates: US conducts 'self-defense' strikes in Iran

Several weeks of peace talks are yet to produce a resolution to the conflict.

President Donald Trump announced "major combat operations" against Iran on Feb. 28, with massive joint U.S.-Israeli strikes targeting military, government and infrastructure sites.

Following the announcement of a two-week ceasefire, initial U.S.-Iran talks in Pakistan in April failed to reach a peace deal.

Trump later announced the open-ended extension of the ceasefire and the continuation of a U.S. blockade until negotiations are concluded "one way or the other."

U.S. Central Command announced it had conducted "self-defense" strikes over the weekend, targeting Iranian radar and drone command and control sites in Goruk and Qeshm Island.

CENTCOM said a post on X that the strikes were conducted in response to aggressive Iranian actions, including the shootdown of a U.S. MQ-1 "Predator" drone. The U.S. responded with fighter aircraft, striking Iranian military assets, according to the post.

CENTCOM said that no U.S. servicemembers were harmed in the strikes.

Lebanon’s Ministry of Public Health says the death toll from Israel’s military campaign has risen to 3,412 people, with another 10,269 injured.

In a statement released Sunday, the health ministry also said 127 healthcare workers are among those killed since March 2.

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam on Saturday accused Israel of adopting a "scorched-earth policy" in its campaign against Hezbollah. Hezbollah, meanwhile, continues its attacks on Israeli soldiers deployed in the south of Lebanon and its long-range strikes on northern Israel.

The speaker of the Iranian parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, said on Sunday that leaders in Tehran "do not trust the enemy's words and promises" amid ongoing peace talks with the U.S., as quoted by the official Islamic Republic News Agency.

Ghalibaf -- a senior figure within the regime who led Iran's delegation at peace talks in Pakistan in April -- said that leaders in Tehran "will not approve any agreement until we are sure that we have secured the rights of the Iranian people," IRNA reported.

The Israel Defense Forces said on Sunday that its troops operating in southern Lebanon had advanced north of the Litani River and secured the Beaufort Ridge -- a strategic position south of the Lebanese city of Nabatieh.

"The IDF crossed the Litani River and expanded the strikes on Hezbollah north of the river. The activity is expanding to additional areas at this moment," the IDF said in a post to X.

"The IDF is operating near Nabatieh, which constitutes a significant power center
