This Deal will include, importantly, NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN! Based on my respect for the above mentioned Leaders, I have instructed Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, The Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Daniel Caine, and The United States Military, that we will NOT be doing the scheduled attack of Iran tomorrow, but have further instructed them to be prepared to go forward with a f

APRIL 30,2026 GLOBAL NEWS LEADERS CALL ON ISRAEL TO OPEN THE GAZA STRIP In every conflict, journalists face limits on access to war zones. But Gaza is different. For more than 930 days, Israel has barred foreign reporters from independently entering the territory. In other recent conflict zones where danger was constant - from Ukraine to Iraq and Syria - foreign correspondents have still been able to report relatively independently. Being on the ground is essential. It allows journalists to question official accounts on all sides, to speak directly with civilians and report back what they witness firsthand. That is why news organizations send their reporters into the field, often at great personal risk. This has pushed the responsibility for covering this devastating war and its aftermath almost entirely on our Palestinian colleagues. Like all Palestinians in Gaza, they have worked under extreme conditions -- facing hunget, displacement, the loss of loved ones and ongoing restrictions

The condition of those involved is not yet known, and law enforcement is actively assessing the situation. Anthony Guglielmi Chief of Communications
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump Quite an evening in D.C. Secret Service and Law Enforcement did a fantastic job. They acted quickly and bravely. The shooter has been apprehended, and I have recommended that we “LET THE SHOW GO ON” but, will entirely be guided by Law Enforcement. They will make a decision shortly. Regardless of that decision, the evening will be much different than planned, and we’ll just, plain, have to do it again. President DONALD J. TRUMP Apr 25, 2026, 9:17 PM

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump STATEMENT OF PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP: Based on the fact that the Government of Iran is seriously fractured, not unexpectedly so and, upon the request of Field Marshal Asim Munir, and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, of Pakistan, we have been asked to hold our Attack on the Country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal. I have therefore directed our Military to continue the Blockade and, in all other respects, remain ready and able, and will therefore extend the Ceasefire until such time as their proposal is submitted, and discussions are concluded, one way or the other. President DONALD J. TRUMP Apr 21, 2026, 4:09 PM
Seyed Abbas Araghchi @araghchi Blockading Iranian ports is an act of war and thus a violation of the ceasefire. Striking a commercial vessel and taking its crew hostage is an even greater violation.

Trump @realDonaldTrump Today, an Iranian-flagged cargo ship named TOUSKA, nearly 900 feet long and weighing almost as much as an aircraft carrier, tried to get past our Naval Blockade, and it did not go well for them. The U.S. Navy Guided Missile Destroyer USS SPRUANCE intercepted the TOUSKA in the Gulf of Oman, and gave them fair warning to stop. The Iranian crew refused to listen, so our Navy ship stopped them right in their tracks by blowing a hole in the engineroom. Right now, U.S. Marines have custody of the vessel. The TOUSKA is under U.S. Treasury Sanctions because of their prior history of illegal activity. We have full custody of the ship, and are seeing what’s on board! President DONALD J.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump Iran’s Navy is laying at the bottom of the sea, completely obliterated - 158 ships. What we have not hit are their small number of, what they call, “fast attack ships,” because we did not consider them much of a threat.

Press Release | April 12, 2026 U.S. to Blockade Ships Entering or Exiting Iranian Ports USCENTCOM TAMPA, Fla. — U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces will begin implementing a blockade of all maritime traffic entering and exiting Iranian ports on April 13 at 10 a.m. ET, in accordance with the President’s proclamation. The blockade will be enforced impartially against vessels of all nations entering or departing Iranian ports and coastal areas, including all Iranian ports on the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman. CENTCOM forces will not impede freedom of navigation for vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz to and from non-Iranian ports. Additional information will be provided to commercial mariners through a formal notice prior to the start of the blockade. All mariners are advised to monitor Notice to Mariners broadcasts and contact U.S. naval forces on bridge-to-bridge channel 16 when operating in the Gulf of Oman and Strait of Hormuz approaches
Donald J. Trump G3 G @realDonaldTrump Iran promised to open the Strait of Hormuz, and they knowingly failed to do so. This caused anxiety, dislocation, and pain to many people and Countries throughout the World. They say they put mines in the water, even though all of their Navy, and most of their "mine droppers," have been completely blown up. They may have done so, but what ship owner would want to take the chance? There is great dishonor and permanent harm to the reputation of Iran, and what's left of their "Leaders," but we are beyond all of that.

Donald J. Trump 03 C @realDonaldTrump So, there you have it, the meeting went well, most points were agreed to, but the only point that really mattered, NUCLEAR, was not. Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz. At some point, we will reach an "ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO IN, ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO OUT" basis, but Iran has not allowed that to happen by merely saying, "There may be a mine out there somewhere," that nobody knows about but them. THIS IS WORLD EXTORTION, and Leaders of Countries, especially the United States of America, will never be extorted. I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas. We will also begin destroying the mines the Iranians laid in the Straits. Any Iranian who fires at us, or at pe

Türk condemns deadly wave of Israeli strikes on Lebanon GENEVA (8 April 2026) – UN Human Rights Chief Volker Türk condemned on Wednesday the massive wave of Israeli strikes across Lebanon, saying reports that hundreds – including civilians – had been killed and injured are appalling. “The scale of the killing and destruction in Lebanon today is nothing short of horrific,” said the High Commissioner. “Such carnage, within hours of agreeing to a ceasefire with Iran, defies belief. It places enormous pressure on a fragile peace, which is so desperately needed by civilians.” Israel said it had carried out some 100 strikes across the country within 10 minutes. The southern suburbs of Beirut, southern Lebanon and the eastern Bekaa Valley were all reportedly struck. Mass casualties have been reported, and hospitals overwhelmed. A UN Human Rights team at the site of one of the strikes in the capital described a scene of devastation, and seeing several dead bodies amid the rubble.
Statement on the violation of three key clauses of the 10-Point Proposal (Agreed Framework) before the start of the negotiations The deep historical distrust we hold toward the United States stems from its repeated violations of all forms of commitments a pattern that has regrettably been repeated once again. As the President of the United States has clearly stated in his Truth, the Islamic Republic of Iran's 10-Point Proposal is a "workable basis on which to negotiate" and the main framework for these talks. However, 3 clauses of this proposal have been violated so far: 1- Non-compliance with the first clause of the 10-Point Proposal regarding the ceasefire in Lebanon a commitment that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has also explicitly referred to and declared as "an immediate ceasefire everywhere, including Lebanon and other regions, effective immediately"; 2- The entry of an intruding drone into Iran airspace, which was destroyed in the city of Lar in Fars Province, in clear violatio

I've been speaking to residents in Iran's capital Tehran after US President Donald Trump's threat to hit Iranian infrastructure if the country doesn't open the Strait of Hormuz. “It feels like we’re sinking deeper into a swamp," one man in his 20s tells me. "What can we do as ordinary people? We can’t do anything. We can’t stop him." A woman in her 20s says her mother is "filling every bottle she can find in the house with water" in case the water supply is disrupted. "I’ve no idea what we’re going to do now. I think more and more people in Iran have realised that Trump doesn’t care about them at all. I hate him from the bottom of my heart, and those who support him too," she says. A man in his 20s tells me: "I’m so tired of everything... I’ve been stockpiling with my family, but I feel like if he wants to attack infrastructure, these efforts are pointless.”

Tehran has therefore categorized the latest overture, which was delivered via a friendly regional intermediary, as a ploy to heighten tensions and has responded negatively. The official outlined five specific conditions under which Iran would agree to end the war. These include: A complete halt to "aggression and assassinations" by the enemy. The establishment of concrete mechanisms to ensure that the war is not reimposed on the Islamic Republic. Guaranteed and clearly defined payment of war damages and reparations. The conclusion of the war across all fronts and for all resistance groups involved throughout the region Iran's exercise of sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz is and will remain Iran's natural and legal right, and it constitutes a guarantee for the implementation of the other party's commitments, and must be recognized. The official further noted that these stipulations are in addition to demands previously presented by Tehran during the second rou

This promise was only made because of the relentless U.S. and Israeli attack. They were looking to take over and rule the Middle East. It is the first time that Iran has ever lost, in thousands of years, to surrounding Middle Eastern Countries. They have said, “Thank you President Trump.” I have said, “You’re welcome!” Iran is no longer the “Bully of the Middle East,” they are, instead, “THE LOSER OF THE MIDDLE EAST,” and will be for many decades until they surrender or, more likely, completely collapse!
