Donald Trump warned Iran to reach an agreement while the US delayed a Patriot missile production deal with Kyiv and Ukrainian drones hit logistics sites in Russia.

U.S. President Donald Trump stated that ongoing negotiations with Tehran represent Iran's final opportunity to secure an agreement, supported by regional partners including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE. Trump warned that failure to reach terms could prompt severe military action, despite ordering a temporary pause on strikes.

Concurrently, U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker confirmed that a joint agreement between Washington and Kyiv to produce Patriot interceptor missiles will not be finalized before winter, though broader defense collaboration with European partners continues.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian drone strikes targeted logistics facilities belonging to Russian e-commerce retailer Wildberries near Moscow, Saint Petersburg, and Tver. Regional officials confirmed at least five fatalities and ten injuries following the strike in the Moscow region.
