Iran hit an oil tanker off the coast of Qatar and #Kuwait’s airport on Wednesday, while airstrikes battered Tehran even as US President #Trump said he was nearly ready to wind down the war and claimed that #Iran's president wanted a #ceasefire.



Iran had no immediate response to Trump's claim on social media that “Iran's New Regime President” was seeking a ceasefire, which Trump said would only happen once the #StraitofHormuz was “open, free, clear.”

"Indian nationals still in Iran are strongly advised to expeditiously exit Iran."

Even as a #ceasefire has been announced in the ongoing conflict between Iran and the US, the Indian Embassy in Tehran issued a fresh advisory urging all Indian nationals still in the country to leave at the earliest, citing the evolving situation on the ground.

In its advisory, the Embassy said Indian citizens must coordinate with officials and follow suggested exit routes while leaving Iran.

#USIranWar

Abdul Majid Hakeem Ilahi, Representative of Iran's Supreme Leader in India, said that the US attacked Iran more than 10,000 times, targeting air forces and missiles. Ilahi, in a conversation with ANI, said that they did not want to be in conflict with any of its neighbours. But the US was using its bases in the Arab countries to attack Iran.

The world teetered on the edge of collapse as President #Trump’s "obliteration" threats and the #WestAsiaConflict sent prices spiraling. #CrudeOil hit $119, aviation fuel jumped 200%, and markets like the Nasdaq plunged into correction territory.

For India, the crisis is hit home: the crude basket passed $115, threatening the fiscal deficit, while an acute #LPG shortage impacted millions. Additionally, a mass exodus of migrant workers from the #Gulf mirrored the panic of 2020.

As a fragile two-week #ceasefire begins with #Tehran’s regime and nuclear goals still intact, the question remains: what did this turmoil achieve?

#Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh said the country was close to retaliating over a #ceasefire breach on Thursday night, shortly after the two-week truce between the US, Israel and Iran was announced, but stepped back following intervention by mediator #Pakistan.

"I hope and pray that the people who created this cancerous state on Palestinian land to get rid of European Jews burn in hell."

Pakistan Defence Minister #KhawajaAsif’s remarks on #Israel has drawn strong condemnation from Tel Aviv, raising concerns over #Islamabad’s role as a mediator and putting a fragile #ceasefire at greater risk ahead of planned talks.

Asif, in a now-deleted post on X, called Israel "evil" and a "curse for humanity", and urged people "to get rid of European Jews."

#IranUSWar

The US and Iran ended a historic round of face-to-face talks without reaching an agreement and the fate of the fragile, two-week #ceasefire still unclear.

Vice President #JDVance, who led the U.S. delegation during the 21 hours of talks in Pakistan's capital Islamabad, said negotiations finished without a deal after the Iranians refused to accept American terms to refrain from developing a nuclear weapon.

US President #DonaldTrump said that if the #ceasefire ends on Wednesday without an agreement, he is prepared to resume attacking #Iran.

"I expect to be bombing because I think that's a better attitude to go in with," he said.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard opened fire on a container ship off the coast of Oman in the #StraitofHormuz, damaging the vessel and raising tensions after planned #ceasefire talks in Pakistan failed to materialise.

The attack came after US President #DonaldTrump extended the US ceasefire with Iran to allow more time for peace talks.

“I will be meeting now, in the Situation Room, to make a final determination,” #Trump said.

The announcement came a day after reports said #US and Iranian negotiators had reached a tentative agreement to extend the fragile #ceasefire in the three-month-old conflict by 60 days while fresh talks are held on #Iran’s disputed nuclear programme.

US President #DonaldTrump said the #ceasefire with #Iran was "over" and added that he would allow talks to continue after fighting flared between the countries sparked by Iranian attacks on ships in the vital Strait of Hormuz.

The strategic shipping route remains a flashpoint in the conflict, which began in late February with massive US-Israeli strikes on Iran.

"I'll let our wonderful negotiators keep talking if they want, but I don't see it. I don't like these people," he said.
