While tensions continue over the trajectory of negotiations between Washington and Tehran, following an exchange of new messages mediated by Pakistan, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that his country will begin a new operation this Monday morning called “Operation Freedom,” aimed at securing maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.
In contrast, the head of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee in the Iranian parliament, Ebrahim Azizi, stated that any U.S. military move in the strait would be considered a violation of the declared ceasefire agreement.
On the negotiation front, the spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Ismail Baghaei, explained that the United States has submitted its response to the Iranian proposal, and that Tehran is currently reviewing these responses ahead of determining its position.
In Lebanon, military operations continue in the southern regions, where Israeli forces have expanded evacuation orders to include areas outside what it defines as the “security zone.”
