US-Iran Peace Plan: Trump Warns of 'Hell' if Hormuz Remains Closed

The United States and Iran have been presented with a two-stage peace plan to cease hostilities. President Donald Trump has warned of severe consequences, vowing "hell" if Iran does not agree to a deal by the end of Tuesday. Iran has declined to immediately reopen the Strait of Hormuz during a temporary ceasefire, citing lack of U.S. readiness for a permanent agreement. International mediators, including Pakistan's military leadership, are actively engaged in facilitating talks. A 45-day ceasefire is under consideration as a pathway to a lasting resolution. The proposal includes an immediate halt to fighting and subsequent comprehensive negotiations within 15-20 days.
