US Extends Iran Ceasefire Deadline Amid Ongoing Negotiations, Informs Israel
The United States has informed Israel that the ceasefire deadline with Iran has been extended to Sunday, as negotiations continue. President Trump has not publicly announced a new deadline, but recent reports indicate multiple timelines have been considered. The extension comes amid ongoing tensions, with the US maintaining a naval blockade on Iran and Tehran responding by detaining vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. Israeli officials have expressed skepticism about reaching an agreement by the new deadline, citing firm positions held by both sides. The situation remains fluid, with the US aircraft carrier advancing toward the Persian Gulf.
