Trump issues fresh Iran threats

The standoff between Washington and Tehran has intensified as President Trump labeled Iran's recent actions in the Strait of Hormuz a total violation of the current ceasefire.

While U.S. negotiators are scheduled to resume talks in Islamabad, Trump has publicly warned that he is prepared to escalate to a full-scale bombing campaign.

Iranian officials remain skeptical, citing a lack of trust and demanding the lifting of the U.S. naval blockade on their ports.

Global energy markets remain on edge as the strategic waterway remains restricted, threatening international oil supplies.
