According to U.S. and European officials involved in the ongoing negotiations who spoke to the New York Times, three demands have been given to the Iranians to prevent potential military actions by the United States, these include: - Permanent end to all enrichment of uranium at sites throughout Iran. - Limits on the range and number of long-range ballistic missiles maintained by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). - End to all support for proxy groups in the Middle East, including Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis operating in Yemen.

Ali Shamkhani, senior advisor to Khamenei: “Limited strike” is an illusion. Any military action by the United States, from any origin and at any level, will be considered the start of war, and its response will be immediate, comprehensive, and unprecedented, targeting the heart of Tel Aviv and all those who support the aggressor.

Trump on TruthSocial: A massive fleet is heading to Iran. It's moving very fast, very strong, very enthusiastic, and with a clear objective. It's a much larger fleet, led by the supercarrier USS Abraham Lincoln, than the one sent to Venezuela. And, as with Venezuela, it's ready, willing, and able to get on with its mission quickly and, if necessary, very forcefully. Hopefully, Iran will quickly come to the negotiating table and make a fair and just deal, without nuclear weapons, a deal that's good for all parties. Time is running out, and it's really critical. As I said to Iran before: Make a deal. They didn't, so there was Operation Midnight Hammer, which caused great destruction in Iran. The next attack will be much worse. Don't let that happen again
