## Summary

People in Iran face the possibility of renewed war while struggling to find dependable information about US military plans and peace talks. Conflicting rumours and reports of a potential nuclear attack have fuelled anxiety, even as schools remain open and families try to maintain daily routines.

Iran’s Education Ministry says it will decide on school closures with security authorities, while state television has advised people to shelter for at least 24 hours in the event of a nuclear strike. Some Iranians fear an attack on the underground “Pickaxe Mountain” site near Natanz, though President Donald Trump has not explicitly threatened nuclear weapons and Iran denies nuclear work is taking place there. After US midterm elections, Axios reported that the military was preparing for possible large-scale strikes; meanwhile, Qatari mediators are seeking agreement on a draft peace deal.
