US President Donald Trump stated no talks with Iran are planned, while Gaza ceasefire efforts remain deadlocked over Hamas disarmament conditions.

United States President Donald Trump has declared that no diplomatic negotiations with Iran are currently planned, reiterating that Tehran must never acquire nuclear weapons. Trump warned of potential military escalation if Iranian or Omani forces disrupt maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, following reports that a vessel was targeted in the area. Tehran responded by stating its armed forces will adopt an offensive posture if diplomatic efforts with Washington fail entirely.

Concurrently, efforts to resolve the conflict in Gaza remain stalled over core conditions. Although Hamas indicated its acceptance of the second phase of a proposed peace framework, Israeli authorities reaffirmed that military forces will not withdraw from the enclave until Hamas undergoes complete disarmament.
