Iran has outlined several conditions for ending the ongoing war, rejecting a ceasefire proposal from the United States. According to Iran’s state-run Press TV, Tehran stated that the conflict will only cease once its specified conditions are fulfilled. The report did not detail the conditions but confirmed that Iran’s stance was firm on this requirement.

The United States had earlier proposed a ceasefire, with Pakistan acting as an intermediary to deliver Washington’s offer to Tehran. Senior Pakistani sources confirmed to Al Jazeera that the document from the Trump administration was presented to Iranian officials, and they are now awaiting a response. The development underscores the complex diplomatic exchanges involving multiple regional and global actors.

The situation remains tense, with related reports noting that Iran’s actions, including closing the Strait of Hormuz, have drawn criticism from the Gulf Cooperation Council, while concerns grow over potential energy instability in Asia if the war continues.
