Trump Rejects Ceasefire Before Iran Strait Deadline
President Donald Trump has not approved a proposed 45-day ceasefire with Iran before his deadline for reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The deadline is set for 8 p.m. ET on Tuesday, with Trump threatening attacks on Iranian infrastructure if the strait remains closed. A White House official confirmed the ceasefire idea is under discussion but lacks presidential endorsement. Operation Epic Fury, the U.S. military operation, proceeds as planned. Trump is due to address the public in a press conference. The conflict, now in its fifth week, involves heightened tensions and diplomatic efforts.
