On the 25th day of the ongoing conflict, a significant twist has emerged as US President Donald Trump claimed that preliminary talks with Iran have taken place over the past two days. He stated that planned US strikes on Iran’s energy and power infrastructure have been temporarily postponed for five days to assess the possibility of a broader agreement. Trump expressed optimism, suggesting Iran may be willing to reconsider its nuclear program. However, the situation on the ground remains volatile. Iran has intensified its offensive, launching its 78th wave of missiles and drones under “Operation True Promise 4,” targeting US bases in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. Key installations like Al Dhafra Air Base were reportedly hit using advanced missiles and kamikaze drones. Contradicting Trump’s claims, Iran’s parliamentary speaker dismissed reports of talks as “fake news,” deepening uncertainty over any potential diplomatic breakthrough.
