Iran said on Monday there were no talks under way with the United States and no plans for any meetings, contradicting U.S. President Donald Trump who had cited talks he said would take place Monday afternoon as justification for calling off attacks. Iran's Foreign Ministry said no negotiations with the United States were taking place and no meetings were scheduled. Iran had no plans to host foreign delegations or send negotiators abroad in the coming days, he said. Baghaei added that all Iranian negotiators were currently in the country, apart from Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi, who was on a religious pilgrimage in Iraq. The only talks under way, he said, were discussions with Oman over management of the Strait of Hormuz. A senior Iranian source also told Reuters that no talks were planned and that Araqchi would be unavailable at least until the end of the week

The U.S. State Department renewed its warning yesterday for Americans across the Middle East, urging heightened vigilance amid the increasingly volatile regional security environment. Americans currently in the region are advised to consider departing while commercial travel remains available or be prepared to leave if the situation deteriorates. The advisory warns of potential flight cancellations, periodic airspace closures, and other travel disruptions. Americans outside the region are urged to reconsider travel to or through the Middle East. The updated warning follows a series of increasingly specific security alerts issued in recent weeks, including notices for Jordan, Bahrain, and, for the first time, Egypt, reflecting the geographic expansion of Iranian attacks and concerns that Iran or Iran-backed groups could target U.S. diplomatic facilities, businesses, and other American interests both within and beyond the Middle East
