Iran says it's ready 'doomsday' onslaught of U.S. attacks after Trump rejects ceasefire deal

Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian said Tehran will not back away from its proposed seven-day ceasefire offer even if it leads to “a doomsday war,” after President Trump appeared to reject the deal. Pezeshkian said he is waiting for Trump’s official response—through U.S. mediators—and outlined Iran’s timeline: once conditions are met, “on Day Six” the Strait of Hormuz would be opened, with renewed talks on a permanent arrangement “on Day Seven.” Iran’s plan would require the U.S. to release $12 billion in frozen assets, lift Iranian oil sanctions, and end the blockade of Iranian ports. The U.S. ambassador Mike Waltz said Washington doubts Iran will negotiate in good faith and cited prior drone attacks in the strait after last summer’s memorandum.
