On August 24, according to Irans official news agency IRNA on August 23, Iranian President Pezechzian stated at an event in Tehran on the evening of August 22 that members of Irans Supreme National Security Council all believed that the memorandum of understanding previously reached with the United States was the best solution based on dignity, wisdom, and national interests. The memorandum "contains no clause indicating Irans surrender or concessions," and all related commitments were to be fulfilled by the other side. However, Iran should also rationally extricate itself from its current state of "neither war nor peace," as it is difficult for Iran to attract investment in such a state. He also mentioned that the late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei had clearly stated the necessity of moving away from this "neither war nor peace" state. Pezechzian further stated that Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei formulated national policies, and the government will continue to advance related work in accordance with these policies.August 24 - The Hawke Fire, a wildfire in the suburbs of Reno, northern Nevada, spread rapidly from the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains toward downtown Reno early this morning, burning more than 10,500 acres and issuing mandatory evacuation orders to nearly 14,000 residents.August 24th - According to a report from the U.S. Central Command on August 23rd, the U.S. guided-missile destroyer USS John Finn is currently sailing in the Arabian Sea, carrying out the U.S. maritime blockade mission against Iran.
