Mutual threats continue between Tehran, Washington, and Tel Aviv as diplomatic efforts to de-escalate and reach a ceasefire agreement face political and security obstacles. After 221 days of conflict and 112 days since a memorandum of understanding was signed, political and military developments are unfolding on multiple fronts, with diplomatic negotiations struggling to achieve a breakthrough.
U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance stated that ending the conflict requires Iran to reduce its uranium enrichment capabilities, while Washington continues to present its conditions for an agreement. Concurrently, U.S. President Donald Trump expressed concern over not knowing who governs Iran, noting that "the second group of their leaders has left." These statements come as Qatar leads diplomatic efforts to mediate between Tehran and Washington.
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) escalated its rhetoric against the U.S. and Israel, warning in a statement that any "miscalculation" or new aggression would be met with a "harsh and devastating" response. The IRGC asserted that Washington and Tel Aviv have failed to weaken, break, or divide Iran, claiming that regional dynamics have shifted in favor of the "axis of resistance," which it described as more unified and capable.
The IRGC also characterized the "Al-Aqsa Flood" operation as a pivotal moment, reaffirming the continuation of resistance until the liberation of Jerusalem and Palestine and the elimination of Israel. Domestically, Iranian authorities have implemented new measures, with the Ministry of Intelligence planning to list certain media outlets as "hostile." The Islamic Consultative Assembly approved a bill prohibiting Iranian citizens from interviewing media outlets designated as "hostile" by the authorities, with 174 lawmakers voting in favor.
