Trump rules out diplomatic talks with Iran amid Strait of Hormuz incident

US President Donald Trump has stated that no diplomatic negotiations are scheduled with Iran, reinforcing Washington's position that Tehran must not obtain nuclear weapons. The announcement coincides with reports of a ship being struck in the Strait of Hormuz. Washington cautioned that military force remains an option if maritime passage is disrupted by Iranian or Omani forces. In response, Iranian leadership warned that its military would shift to an offensive stance if diplomatic channels close entirely.

Meanwhile, regional peace negotiations remain hindered. Although Hamas expressed support for the second phase of a US-backed peace proposal, Israeli officials reiterated that military forces will not pull back from Gaza until Hamas undergoes full disarmament.
