Iran has accused the United States of violating a fragile ceasefire agreement, even as Donald Trump maintains that the truce remains intact amid rising tensions across the Middle East.
Fresh explosions were reported across key Gulf states, while conflicting claims emerged over the status of the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, with Tehran declaring it shut despite US assurances it remains open.
Iran’s parliamentary speaker, Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf, said Washington had breached multiple aspects of the disputed ceasefire deal. He cited Israel’s strikes on Lebanon, alleged drone incursions into Iranian airspace, and the White House’s stance on uranium enrichment as violations.
However, the White House rejected Iran’s claims, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt insisting the US had not agreed to any terms allowing Tehran to continue enriching uranium. She also dismissed reports that the Strait of Hormuz had been closed, despite Iranian state media suggesting otherwise following Israeli strikes in Lebanon.
