Iran War Live: Tehran Considers U.S. Proposal as Trump Threatens New Strikes
Iranian official says Tehran reviewing American peace plan after president's renewed military threats, as U.S. warplane disables Iranian tanker.
Iran is actively reviewing a new American proposal to end the ongoing war, according to Iranian officials, following President Trump's latest threats to resume large-scale military strikes if diplomatic efforts fail. The development comes as tensions remain high despite ongoing cease-fire negotiations, with both sides continuing military actions that threaten to derail peace talks.
A senior Iranian official, speaking to state media, confirmed that Tehran was examining the latest U.S. peace plan, though no details of the proposal were disclosed. The announcement follows Trump's warning that American forces would resume intensive bombing campaigns if Iran does not agree to terms within a specified timeframe. The president's ultimatum has added urgency to diplomatic efforts while raising concerns about escalating military action.
Meanwhile, military operations continue on both sides despite the supposed cease-fire. A U.S. warplane successfully disabled an Iranian-flagged oil tanker in the Persian Gulf, according to Pentagon sources, as part of the ongoing naval blockade of Iranian energy exports. The action demonstrates that core elements of the American military strategy remain in place even as peace talks proceed.
The conflict expanded geographically as Israeli forces struck targets near Beirut, reportedly in coordination with U.S. operations. These strikes suggest broader regional coordination against Iranian-aligned forces, potentially complicating Tehran's strategic calculations. Lebanese officials confirmed the attacks but provided no immediate casualty figures.
Diplomatic sources indicate that the current U.S. proposal includes provisions for lifting economic sanctions in exchange for Iranian compliance with nuclear restrictions and regional security guarantees. However, significant obstacles remain, including disagreements over the timeline for sanctions relief and the scope of Iranian concessions. With both military and diplomatic tracks proceeding simultaneously, the next few days could prove decisive for determining whether the conflict continues or moves toward resolution.
