Trump says war could end if Iran accepts proposal

Deal could end war and US blockade, but 'higher level' bombing if Iran doesn't agree

US President Donald Trump has posted on social media about the latest developments between the US and Iran.

On his Truth Social platform, he says the Iran war and blockade could end with a deal, but bombing could intensify if Iran doesn't agree to one.

If Iran "agrees to give what has been agreed to" - which he describes as "a big assumption" - then Operation Epic Fury will be at an end, he says.

Trump adds the US Blockade would also "allow the Hormuz Strait to be OPEN TO ALL, including Iran".

The president also threatens that bombing will resume if Iran doesn't agree to a deal, "and it will be, sadly, at a much higher level and intensity than it was before".
