In this episode of The President’s Daily Brief:

• The latest U.S.-Iran peace effort may still be alive despite President Trump’s rejection of Tehran’s proposal, as mediators work to bridge disputes over Iran’s nuclear program, sanctions relief, and the future of the Strait of Hormuz.

• Ukraine says its forces continue to retake territory in northern Donetsk as they try to disrupt Russia’s latest offensive in the east.

• Two North Korean soldiers captured while fighting for Russia are now at the center of a diplomatic dispute between South Korea and Ukraine, while potentially offering Seoul valuable intelligence about Pyongyang’s military operations.

• A new Wall Street Journal report says Egypt’s intelligence chief personally warned Benjamin Netanyahu about the possibility of an attack from Gaza before October 7, an account the Israeli prime minister disputes.
