Iran-US-Israel War Live News Updates: US seeks unified response from Iran as fragile ceasefire holds, Trump keeps naval blockade until Iran offers proposal, Tehran calls blockade act of war and vows resistance.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the administration has not imposed a formal deadline on the current ceasefire extension, signalling a wait-and-watch approach as diplomatic channels remain active. However, she reiterated that a key US demand in any negotiated settlement would be Iran agreeing to hand over its stockpile of enriched uranium—an issue likely to remain a major sticking point.
The ceasefire itself remains conditional. Trump confirmed that while the truce has been extended, a US naval blockade on Iranian ports will stay in place until Tehran submits a formal proposal and negotiations reach a definitive outcome.
Tehran has strongly pushed back. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi called the blockade an “act of war” and a violation of the ceasefire, warning that Iran is prepared to resist what it views as coercive tactics.
