Iran’s foreign ministry says Donald Trump’s claim that the country has asked for a ceasefire is “false and baseless”, Iranian state media reports

Earlier, in a Truth Social post, the US president said Iran’s “new regime president” had made the request – but he didn’t clarify who he was referring to

Trump said the US would consider a ceasefire “when Hormuz Strait is open, free, and clear. Until then, we are blasting Iran into oblivion or, as they say, back to the Stone Ages!!!”
