Iran has set strict conditions for resuming nuclear negotiations, stating it will not export any enriched uranium.

Fox News reported on a drill involving Israeli fighter jets flying towards Iran, which occurred amid heightened regional tensions. U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegeman confirmed a meeting in Israel with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss security issues and the Iranian threat.
Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, met with Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff, General Asim Munir, and reiterated that Tehran would not relinquish its enriched uranium stockpile. Rezaei stated that Iran is unwilling to resume talks with the U.S. until Washington takes practical steps to build trust and meets Tehran's demands.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian echoed this firm stance, demanding the U.S. lift sanctions and cease threats before any dialogue can restart. He accused the U.S. of instigating conflict in the region and causing global disruptions.
President Trump, while acknowledging the economic cost of potential conflict, including rising fuel prices, deemed it a necessary price to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. He stressed that Iran would never possess a nuclear weapon and that even successful strikes on fortified underground facilities are not enough without long-term assurances.
The White House, through Deputy Spokesperson Anna Kelli, assured that the U.S. would not attack Iran before the midterm elections, though economic sanctions and pressure would remain in full force. Meanwhile, the Pentagon confirmed an additional aircraft carrier was en route to the Middle East.
