Iran's parliament speaker, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, has stated that Tehran believes the United States and Israel are preparing for a full-fledged war, according to Al Jazeera. Ghalibaf emphasized that Iran's position on the conflict is "entirely clear, rational, and non-negotiable."
In separate reports, Ghalibaf also warned that Tehran must "both fight and negotiate," responding to US President Donald Trump's comments on whether to destroy Iran or reach an agreement. Trump, during an interview with Fox News, suggested that the Houthi rebels would not attack the US, according to Italian media.
Meanwhile, live updates from German media indicate that Iran has sent conditions for ending the war to the US, including the cessation of hostilities and lifting of naval blockades. The situation remains volatile, with reports of increased military activity and civilian casualties.
The number of American soldiers killed in Iran is reportedly higher than officially reported, according to a Washington Post article cited by Romanian media. US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has denied the claim, but the discrepancy highlights ongoing tensions in the region.
