Truth Social

Islamabad is prepped for another round, but Iran hasn’t confirmed it will show up—while leaders warn they’ve "prepared new cards on the battlefield" and Washington readies its team.

Ahead of a cease-fire deadline, President Donald Trump escalates his warning on Truth Social, telling Tehran that refusing a U.S. proposal will trigger a major escalation: “No more ‘Mr. Nice Guy’—it’s time to end the killing machine.”

In a surprise Truth Social post, the U.S. president declared Israel is barred from striking inside Lebanon and said he will invite Lebanon’s Joseph Aoun and Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu to Washington. Netanyahu signaled a temporary cease-fire, while Hezbollah blasted the move and warned of consequences.
