The Trump administration has put together a 15-point ceasefire plan intended to stop the war with Iran.
The proposal was first reported by the New York Times and Israel's Channel 12, which has published a summary.
NPR has not seen a copy of the plan, but a person briefed on it,
speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly,
told NPR the published summary reflected an early version and that changes have been made.
It's not clear what those changes are.

Able to mobilize within 18 hours to go anywhere worldwide to do a variety of different missions.
Along with the two marine expeditionary units that are already sailing toward the Persian Gulf,
