Trump Warns Iran Over Hormuz Mines; Vows Consequences ‘Never Seen Before’.
WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump has issued a fresh ultimatum to Tehran, demanding the immediate removal of any sea mines placed in the strategic Strait of Hormuz. Failure to comply would trigger a military response at a “level never seen before,” the President warned. This follows statements from US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who alleged that Iranian forces are operating from civilian areas like schools and hospitals, adding that Tehran is “badly losing” the ongoing conflict. While Trump hinted at the possibility of talks depending on the terms, he remarked that Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, “cannot live in peace” under current conditions. In response, Iranian leadership rejected any talk of a ceasefire, with Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf stating that aggressive action is necessary to deter future strikes. Meanwhile, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu asserted that Israel is “breaking the bones” of the Islamic Republic, leaving the future of the regime in the hands of the Iranian people. (Iranintl)
