Middle East Crisis: Trump Says Iran Wants a Deal as US-Iran Conflict Deepens

US President Donald Trump said Iran is eager to negotiate, asserting that the United States has already achieved its military objectives and that Tehran has little capability left. According to the report, Trump also claimed Iran had contacted the US seeking a deal but questioned whether it could be trusted to honor any agreement. It further states that Trump shared videos of recent US strikes on Iran through his Truth Social platform, describing them as retaliation for attacks on commercial vessels near the Strait of Hormuz. The report says Iran responded by launching a ballistic missile toward the US Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain, while US forces continued airstrikes on military targets across several Iranian cities, including Bushehr. It also warns that a prolonged conflict could disrupt global energy supplies, raise oil, fuel, and gas prices, increase transportation costs, weaken stock markets, and fuel worldwide inflation. The report concludes by outlining international reactions, with countries urging restraint, supporting military action, or calling for diplomatic dialogue.
