Middle East conflict: Iran Intensifies Strikes Amid Ceasefire Claims by Donald Trump

On the 25th day of the ongoing conflict involving United States, Israel, and Iran, tensions have sharply escalated despite ceasefire claims. While US President Donald Trump recently stated that discussions with Iran regarding a possible truce are underway, Iran has launched its 78th wave of missile and drone attacks under “Operation True Promise 4.” The strikes targeted US bases in Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia, including key sites like Ali Al Salem, Al Kharj, and Al Dhafra. Advanced weapons such as Khaibar Shekan and Zolfaghar missiles, along with kamikaze drones, were reportedly used. Simultaneously, Iran has intensified attacks on Israeli regions, including Haifa and parts of the West Bank, with reports of cluster bomb usage causing severe destruction and civilian distress. Meanwhile, the US military released footage of strikes on Iranian missile, drone, and radar systems, signaling continued escalation despite ongoing diplomatic narratives.
