US, European allies set August deadline for Iran nuclear deal talks: Report
The snapback provision itself expires in October. Since the reimposition process takes 30 days to complete, officials aim to finalise the decision before Russia assumes the rotating presidency of the UN Security Council that same month — a move that could complicate enforcement.According to Axios, European officials plan to engage Iran intensively in the coming weeks, making it clear that the only path to avoiding renewed sanctions is full transparency and meaningful reassurances about the peaceful nature of its nuclear programme.'Snapback isn't just a threat — it's a tool to bring Iran back to the table and keep the global community safe,' said a senior US official, who described the mechanism as both leverage and a last resort.While Iran has not formally responded to the new deadline, Western officials hope the pressure will prompt cooperation and avert escalation.- EndsWith inputs from ReutersTune InMust Watch

Italian cybersecurity firm Exein sees defence boost as it closes funding round
Italian tech firm Exein said on Wednesday a pick up in European defence spending was supporting its domestic growth, as it closed a funding round aimed at global expansion. The startup, which provides embedded cybersecurity on small devices including chips, is planning to expand its range of products as countries and businesses move away from cloud-based systems because of data sovereignty concerns and rising costs, its Chief Executive Gianni Cuozzo said. Italy has been trying for years to foster a tech startup sector. As European countries increase their defence spending in a push to meet NATO targets and protect themselves against Russian expansionism, demand for domestic cybersecurity and infrastructure protection systems is increasing. Exein said on Wednesday its Series C funding round raised 70 million euros ($81 million) for expansion across the United States, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea, and to strengthen its European presence. Its plans include acquisitions in Europe and the U.S. to target new users, followed by another funding round for a "bigger acquisition", and a public listing between 2029 and 2030, Cuozzo said. The group, whose clients include MediaTek, Daikin , Seco and Kontron, said in April it was valued at around 500 million euros. It is targeting 20 million euros in revenues this year and aiming for triple-digit revenue growth in each of the next three years, helped by acquisitions, Cuozzo said. Attackers "are no longer breaching through the front door; the microwave on a military ship, or the smart fish tank in a hospital waiting room - any one of these could be exploited to compromise the entire network," said Elena Moneta, Principal at London-based VC firm Balderton, which led the funding round.
