Former President Donald Trump warned on Truth Social that the U.S. military has prepared a massive missile strike against Iran, should Tehran follow through on what he described as an assassination threat against him. Trump claimed the military is ready for a year-long campaign to destroy Iranian territory. The warning came after Trump declared a previous ceasefire with Iran “over,” despite ongoing diplomatic talks. In response, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi accused Washington of violating that ceasefire agreement by deploying additional forces. Parliamentary speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf warned Tehran would mount an “all-out defense.” The exchange follows recent attacks on tankers, U.S. strikes on Iranian targets, and Iranian retaliation against Gulf bases, raising fears of further escalation even as Qatar and Oman continue mediation efforts.
