>> I do see a deal in Iran, Mr. President. 
>> Could be soon. 
They're agreeing with us on on the plan. 
They gave us most of the points. 
Why wouldn't they? 
>> Matt Rivers is in Doha with the latest on peace talks. 
>> Well, Maggie, the foreign ministers for Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan all met in Islamabad to try and lay out a road map for peace, but not present the US, Iran, and Israel. 
Still, the Pakistani foreign minister says he thinks the US and Iran will meet quote in the coming days as thousands of US troops are still headed this way. 
This as a new entrant into the war emerges. 
The Houthis in Yemen firing a missile toward Israel over the weekend. 
A reminder that the country could cause major havoc should they try and close the straight of Babel Mandeb in the Red Sea. 
12% of the world's seaborn oil passes through there. 
And with the straight of Hormuz effectively already closed, any disruption in the Red Sea would be catastrophic for global oil supplies.
