One day before the ceasefire in the war with Iran was set to expire, President Trump announced Tuesday he is extending it "until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal," despite previously saying he wouldn't move the deadline, which was set to expire in the coming hours. Before the president made that announcement, CBS News' @charliecbs reported on the status of the U.S. Military in the region. Here's where U.S. aircraft carriers have built up in the Middle East.

President Trump says an Iranian cargo ship that tried to bypass the U.S. blockade in the Strait of Hormuz is now in U.S. custody. U.S. officials tell @CharlieCBS a Marine team is searching about 5,000 containers aboard the vessel, though its cargo remains unclear. cbsn.ws/4e0gNje

The Iran regime said that it has no plans to attend peace talks in Pakistan with President Trump's top three negotiators, including Vice President JD Vance, as Tehran balks at what it considers "unreasonable and unrealistic demands" by the White House. cbsn.ws/41FHwKy

The fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran is set to expire this week, with both countries accusing the other of violations over the weekend. More American troops are on their way to the region.

Iran's parliamentary speaker says there has been progress in U.S. peace talks, but both sides still far apart cbsn.ws/48Fatdk

US officials tell CBS News the USS Gerald R Ford Aircraft Carrier has crossed into the Red Sea, rejoining the fight in the Middle East. Plagued by problems including a fire in the laundry department, it is already on a record-setting deployment for a carrier.

President Trump announced that Israel and Lebanon have agreed to a 10-day ceasefire. The move is being viewed as a possible step toward broader negotiations involving Iran, including tensions tied to the Strait of Hormuz, as Trump said he’s "optimistic" a deal could be reached.

The Pentagon has approached major U.S. automakers about potentially helping boost weapons production by using their personnel and large-scale factories, according to sources familiar with the talks.

The U.S. Navy said it has turned back 10 Iranian-flagged oil tankers attempting to evade its blockade of Iranian ports. In response to the U.S. blockade, Iran has vowed to block shipping lanes in the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea. cbsn.ws/41WPj6Z

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said that the U.S. will maintain the "successful blockade" of the Strait of Hormuz., adding that the U.S. military can "make the transition" from this blockade to "major combat operations." cbsn.ws/4tfxWdh

More than 10,000 U.S. Sailors, Marines, and Airmen along with over a dozen warships and dozens of aircraft are executing the mission to blockade ships entering and departing Iranian ports. During the first 24 hours, no ships made it past the U.S. blockade and 6 merchant vessels complied with direction from U.S. forces to turn around to re-enter an Iranian port on the Gulf of Oman. The blockade is being enforced impartially against vessels of all nations entering or departing Iranian ports and coastal areas, including all Iranian ports on the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman. U.S. forces are supporting freedom of navigation for vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz to and from non-Iranian ports.

After unsuccessful peace talks with Iran this weekend, at least 13 U.S. war ships are now blocking all tankers going to and from Iranian ports. Crude oil prices hit almost $100 a barrel. cbsn.ws/4sx5Yc4

President Trump called the U.S. rescue operation of the two-person crew of an F-15 jet shot down in Iran last week “one of the largest, most complex, most harrowing” missions the U.S. military has ever conducted. @CharlieCBS has more on how it unfolded. cbsn.ws/3Om7AqY

A U.S. airman hiked up a 7,000-foot peak and took shelter in a crevice, after he and his crewmate were downed while flying over central Iran. Both airmen were rescued in a complex mission that involved dozens of commandos and aircraft.

The U.S. military has the ability to open the Strait of Hormuz “should we choose to do it,” former CENTCOM commander Ret. Gen. Frank McKenzie says. He tells @edokeefe the Strait can be opened with an air and naval campaign and the use of ground troops would be probably used in any raids of key infrastructure. “A raid is an attack with a planned withdrawal where you don't plan to stay. The one exception might be Kharg Island,” McKenzie says. “I think Kharg Island is a very lucrative target and I'm sure we're looking at it hard right now. I have no idea if we're going to go up there.”

A U.S. Air Force officer has been rescued alive after an urgent, two-day manhunt involving special operations forces in a remote area of Iran where the F-15E fighter jet was shot down. @charliecbs has the details on the mission.

An American A-10 Warthog took fire and was damaged during a search-and-rescue mission for a crew member on a U.S. F-15E fighter jet that was downed over Iran on Friday, two U.S. officials told CBS News. @CharlieCBS reports the Warthog pilot ejected over the Persian Gulf and was successfully recovered. cbsn.ws/4c4cpNz

More than 3,500 U.S. troops, including the USS Tripoli with about 2,500 Marines, arrived in the Middle East on Saturday. cbsn.ws/4bDXAlL

U.S. forces have struck thousands of targets inside Iran and destroyed dozens of Iranian naval vessels as part of the war effort. @CBSNews has learned that Iran has placed a number of mines in the Strait of Hormuz, posing a risk to vessels attempting to pass through. cbsn.ws/41nVOiF

Iranian ballistic missiles struck Israel overnight, inflicting damage on a scale not seen there since the beginning of the war. Nearly 200 people were injured in strikes in Arad and Dimona. @CharlieCBS reports from Tel Aviv.
