Qatari mediators have returned to Tehran to press for a deal between the United States and Iran, according to CBS News live updates. The report said the effort is taking place as Trump acknowledged the outreach while keeping his threats on the table.

CBS News framed the effort in its headline as Qatar pushing for a U.S.-Iran deal "under shadow of Trump's threats." The report's summary states that Trump has acknowledged the outreach but has not set aside the threats he has made.

The summary identifies Qatar as the party carrying the effort to Tehran as a mediator. It does not say whether the United States or Iran has responded to the push, or what either side has proposed.

The material available does not describe the terms of any deal under discussion, nor does it say how the mediators' visit has been received in Tehran. It does not give a date for the return or specify the threats Trump has made. Those details are not contained in the headline or summary on which this account is based.

Only one source report was available for this story, and it is from CBS News. The outlet did not list an author in the material provided. This account has not been checked against other reporting.
