Iran Says US, Israel ‘Exhausted’ and Seeking Ceasefire
Iran has accused the United States of lying about the rising tensions and claims Washington is now pushing for a ceasefire. Major General Ali Abdollahi of the IRGC said Iranian military pressure has left both the US and Israel exhausted. He insisted President Trump’s calls for peace reflect frustration over Iran’s actions and dismissed US statements on incidents in the Strait of Hormuz as false. The Strait of Hormuz is a vital route for global oil shipments. Any disruption there could drive up oil prices and unsettle the global economy. It remains unclear if Iranian officials will travel to Pakistan for further talks. Previous negotiations have stalled, and both sides continue to exchange strong statements. Observers warn the next steps could determine whether the crisis escalates or de-escalates.
