Media: The facilitator believes that Mejlis is close to restarting the memorandum of understanding

On 28 July, according to the Israeli Times, an Arab official and another source revealed that, prior to the meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and United States President Trump on Tuesday, the facilitator believed that they were close to reaching a breakthrough agreement and that it was hoped that the memorandum of understanding signed last month between the United States and Iran would be reactivated. However, the facilitators are still awaiting a final decision following a meeting between Trump and the Israeli leadership. Pakistan, Egypt and Qatar indicated on a Sunday night that they were discussing a proposal aimed at clarifying differences over the operation of the Strait of Hormuz. The Iranian side maintained that the memorandum of understanding gave it some control over the Strait, while the United States disagreed. The mediation's proposal was aimed at bridging those differences so that the United States and Iran could begin talks through the memorandum, whose 60-day deadline would expire next month. Iran and Oman have approved the mediation proposal, which is currently awaiting the approval of Trump. The two sources indicated that the White House had not taken a decision and that it would not take a final decision until Trump met Netanyahu。
