US President Donald Trump issued a fresh warning to Iran after Tehran formally responded to a US-backed peace proposal aimed at easing escalating Gulf tensions. Trump accused Iran of “playing games” and said the country had mocked America for decades, warning that “they will be laughing no longer.” Iran reportedly sent its response through Pakistani mediators as diplomatic efforts continue to prevent further conflict in the Strait of Hormuz. The proposal focuses on ending hostilities and reopening maritime routes while broader talks on Iran’s nuclear program continue. Despite ongoing negotiations, military tensions and threats from both sides continue to raise fears of wider regional instability. (PC: Bloomberg)
