US-Israel-Iran War Latest News, Ceasefire Updates Today: As the war in Iran entered its 38th day on Tuesday, US President has warned that ‘the entire country can be taken in one night tomorrow.” The remarks came ahead of his deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Here are the latest updates:
Trump Issues Fresh Deadline: US President Donald Trump has set a new deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. In a social media post, he warned that Tuesday at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time would be the cutoff.
He threatened to bomb Iranian power plants and key infrastructure if Tehran didn’t reopen the Strait. In response, Iranian officials said the strait will remain closed until the country is compensated for war damage.
Rescue Mission and Rising Risks: A US airman whose fighter jet was shot down over Iran managed to avoid capture for more than a day. He hid in difficult terrain before being rescued in a massive operation.
Officials said there were no US casualties during the mission. The rescued officer was injured but is expected to recover. Around the same time, an A-10 aircraft crashed near the Strait of Hormuz, and its pilot was also rescued.
Diplomatic Efforts Continue: Behind the scenes, talks are reportedly ongoing. Oman has held last-minute discussions with Iran over reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Pakistan and Egypt are also working to keep communication open between Washington and Tehran.
Wider Conflict Spreads: Iran has warned it could step up attacks on key infrastructure in Israel and allied Arab states. Missile and drone strikes have already been reported in parts of the region.
The conflict has also affected global energy supplies, with oil-producing nations warning that damage to infrastructure could take a long time to repair.
