Trump plans prolonged blockade of Iran, says report

President Donald Trump has told his aides to prepare for a prolonged United States naval blockade of Iran’s key shipping routes, including the Strait of Hormuz, according to US media reports. The move is part of efforts to intensify economic pressure on Tehran as the war enters its third month and peace efforts remain stalled. Trump has already ordered the US Navy to block ships heading to or from Iranian ports, a step aimed mainly at choking off Iran’s vital oil exports. He has repeatedly said Iran will never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon and insists any settlement must be on US terms. In meetings with senior advisers, Trump decided that maintaining and even extending the blockade was a less risky option than resuming large scale bombing or withdrawing from the conflict entirely. Analysts say Washington wants to […]

Sanctioned-linked yacht crosses Hormuz tensions

A luxury superyacht linked to a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin has crossed the Strait of Hormuz despite ongoing tensions and restrictions in the region. The 142-metre vessel, Nord, is associated with Russian billionaire Alexei Mordashov, who is under Western sanctions. The yacht sailed from Dubai to Muscat over the weekend, making it one of the few private vessels to pass through the strategic waterway in recent months. Although Mordashov is not officially listed as the owner, records indicate the yacht is registered to a company linked to his family. Estimated to be worth over $500 million, the vessel features high-end amenities including a helipad, swimming pool and onboard submarine. The crossing comes at a time of heightened geopolitical tensions. Iran has imposed strict controls over maritime traffic in the strait following its standoff with the United States, […]

US reviewing latest Iran proposal, says talks continue

The United States says it is carefully examining a new proposal from Iran aimed at breaking the deadlock over the ongoing war and tensions in the Gulf. Officials in Washington say they are still reviewing the details and will consult allies before taking a position. Iranian officials have outlined an offer that focuses first on ending the conflict and easing restrictions on vital shipping routes, including the Strait of Hormuz. Under the proposal, discussions on Iran’s nuclear programme would come later, after a ceasefire and security guarantees are in place. This approach does not fully match the public stance of the United States, which insists that nuclear issues must be addressed from the start of any broader agreement. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has suggested that Tehran may be trying to gain time, saying Washington will not allow Iran […]

Trump cancels Pakistan talks triip says Iran war on hold

International efforts to broker peace between the United States and Iran hung in the balance on Sunday after President Donald Trump cancelled his envoys’ planned trip to Pakistan for talks.​ Trump said there was no point “sitting around talking about nothing,” dismissing Tehran’s opening position, but revealed that Iran quickly sent back a revised proposal after hearing the visit had been scrapped. “They gave us a paper that should have been better and, interestingly, immediately when I canceled it, within 10 minutes, we got a new paper that was much better,” he told reporters, without giving details.​ The White House had earlier announced that Trump’s son in law Jared Kushner and special envoy Steve Witkoff would travel to Islamabad on Saturday for indirect talks with Iran aimed at moving “toward a deal.” Trump later told Fox News he called off […]

Israel, Lebanon extend ceasefire as Iran peace talks stall

Israel and Lebanon have agreed to extend their fragile ceasefire by three weeks even as U.S. efforts to secure a broader peace deal with Iran remain stuck. President Donald Trump announced the extension in Washington on Thursday after meeting the Israeli and Lebanese ambassadors, saying he believed “there’s a very good chance of having peace” and calling it “an easy one” to achieve, despite recent Israeli strikes in Lebanon and renewed rocket fire from Iran backed Hezbollah. The initial truce between Israel and Lebanon had been due to expire on Sunday. At the same time, Trump signalled he is in no hurry to end the wider war with Iran, warning that “the clock is ticking” for Tehran as a third U.S. aircraft carrier, the USS George H.W. Bush, arrived in the Middle East to join two other carriers already operating […]

Trump orders US Navy to destroy boats laying mines in Hormuz

President Donald Trump on Thursday ordered the United States Navy to destroy any boats found laying sea mines in the Strait of Hormuz, escalating pressure on Iran over control of the vital waterway.​ “I have ordered the United States Navy to shoot and kill any boat, small boats though they may be… that is putting mines in the waters of the Strait of Hormuz,” Trump wrote in a post cited by U.S. media. He added that there should be “no hesitation” in carrying out the directive.​ Trump also said U.S. mine‑sweeping operations were already under way. “Additionally, our mine ‘sweepers’ are clearing the Strait right now,” he stated, underscoring Washington’s determination to keep the strategic chokepoint open to international shipping.​ The Strait of Hormuz, which connects the Gulf to global markets, is one of the world’s most important energy corridors, […]

Iran tightens grip on Strait of Hormuz as US blocks ships and ceasefire talks stall

Iran has tightened its control over the Strait of Hormuz by seizing two commercial vessels, just as the United States pauses new strikes but keeps a naval blockade in place and peace talks remain in limbo.​ The move came after U.S. President Donald Trump said he was indefinitely suspending renewed military attacks on Iran and extending a shaky ceasefire so Washington could study an Iranian proposal to end the two month old conflict. However, Tehran has not confirmed any formal extension of the truce and has denounced the ongoing blockade of its maritime trade as an act of war.​ Iran’s chief negotiator and parliament speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf said a full ceasefire would only be possible if the U.S. lifted its naval blockade and allowed normal traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a key route that previously carried around one […]

US upbeat on Iran deal but talks still uncertain as ceasefire deadline looms

The United States remains cautiously optimistic about reaching a new deal with Iran as a two week ceasefire between the two countries nears its end, even though key details of proposed talks in Pakistan are still unsettled. A senior Iranian official told Reuters that Tehran is “positively reviewing” whether to attend planned negotiations in Pakistan, after previously dismissing the idea, but stressed that no final decision has been made. A Pakistani source involved in the process said efforts are underway to restart talks on Wednesday and indicated that U.S. President Donald Trump could join in person or virtually if an agreement comes within reach. According to the Pakistani source, “progress is being made” and discussions are on track, raising hopes that diplomacy can prevent a slide back to open conflict once the ceasefire expires. The truce was agreed after weeks […]

Trump accuses Iran of breaching ceasefire in Strait of Hormuz

US President Donald Trump has accused Iran of violating the two week ceasefire between both countries with fresh attacks in the Strait of Hormuz.​ In a post on his Truth Social platform on Sunday, Trump said US negotiators would return to Pakistan on Monday to resume talks aimed at ending the war with Iran. At the same time, he issued a new threat to destroy every power plant and bridge in Iran if Tehran refuses what he called a reasonable deal.​ Trump wrote that if Iran does not accept the agreement on the table, the United States will knock out all its power plants and bridges, saying they will come down fast and easy. He added that it would be his honour to do what he claimed should have been done by previous US presidents over the last 47 years.​ […]

Iran says final peace deal still distant as Hormuz stays shut

Iran says a final peace agreement with the United States is still far away as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed in the ongoing standoff.​ Parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said in a televised address that there has been some progress in talks with Washington but many gaps and fundamental issues remain unresolved. He stressed that Iran is still far from a final discussion on ending the war launched by the United States and Israel against the country.​ Iran has refused to reopen the vital waterway until the US lifts its blockade of Iranian ports. Ghalibaf warned that if America does not end the blockade, traffic in the Strait of Hormuz will remain limited.​ The comments came after high level talks in Pakistan failed to produce a breakthrough. US President Donald Trump said very good conversations are ongoing but accused […]
