Trump Signals Ceasefire Is Over, Warns Iran of Devastating Response to Any Assassination Attempt

President Donald Trump said the United States has made it clear to Iran that the ceasefire has ended, even as both sides have agreed to continue diplomatic discussions.

According to Trump, Iran requested that negotiations continue, and Washington agreed. However, he said the U.S. delivered a firm and unmistakable message that the ceasefire is no longer in effect.

Trump Issues Strong Warning to Iran

Trump also delivered a direct warning regarding reported Iranian assassination threats against him. He said he has already instructed U.S. officials that if Iran ever carries out such a plot, the response should be overwhelming and unlike anything Iran has ever experienced.

"I have always been under threat. I have long been at the top of Iran's assassination list," Trump said.

Trump also rejected reports claiming Israel recently provided new intelligence related to assassination threats against him, saying there was nothing new and that he has been a long-standing target of the Iranian regime.

Iran Responds

Iran responded with its own warning, declaring that it would never surrender and stating that any new U.S. military action would be met with a full-scale defensive response.

New U.S. Sanctions

The Trump administration also announced new sanctions targeting financial networks connected to Iran's leadership, increasing economic pressure alongside its tougher military posture.

The latest statements and sanctions underscore growing tensions between Washington and Tehran, even as diplomatic contacts continue.
