Donald Trump said on Monday that a preliminary agreement to end the war in the Gulf has been signed by the US and Iran, though details have yet to be made public and both countries said a permanent truce is yet to be negotiated.

US Vice President JD Vance will attend a formal signing ceremony in Geneva on Friday.
