Donald Trump has warned Tehran that the “clock is ticking” and threatened consequences if its leaders do not act quickly. "For Iran, the Clock is Ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won’t be anything left of them.
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!," the US president wrote in a Truth Social post.
Trump warned that if Tehran failed to reach a peace agreement with the US, it would face "a very bad time”. "If they don’t, they’re going to have a bad time.
A very bad time.
They had better make a deal," Trump told French media.
He also shared an AI-generated graphic of him and a US Navy admiral in front of stormy waters, and the line: "It was calm before the storm." It comes after Trump spoke to Benjamin Netanyahu about Iran on Sunday as the Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu held a security meeting with his cabinet, Israeli media reports.
Trump’s warning follows a drone strike sparked a fire at an electrical generator at the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant in Abu Dhabi.
No injuries were reported, radiological safety levels were unaffected and the Federal Authority for Nuclear Regulation confirmed the plant's essential systems are operating normally.
