U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stark ultimatum to Iran, warning that the country could face a significantly intensified bombing campaign if it refuses to agree to a proposed deal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict.
According to reports, Trump said military action would resume “at a much higher level and intensity” if negotiations fail, while adding that accepting the agreement could bring an end to hostilities and reopen key trade routes.
The warning comes amid ongoing diplomatic efforts and signs that both sides are close to a possible agreement, though uncertainty remains over whether Tehran will accept the terms.
The development has heightened global concerns, as the conflict has already disrupted oil supplies and increased geopolitical tensions in the region.
