President Trump said Monday there is "positive momentum" toward ending the war with Iran after meeting Qatar's prime minister at the White House, his first talks with a foreign leader since midterm losses. Trump described the conversation with Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani as excellent, noting much was discussed regarding Iran.

Separately, the Saudi-led coalition intercepted two Houthi missiles fired toward Riyadh, destroying a ballistic and cruise missile. It also struck Houthi weapons facilities, while Iran reiterated it won't negotiate unless Washington meets seven conditions.
