President Donald Trump has delayed a threatened U.S. strike on Iran’s energy infrastructure and extended a deadline for reopening the Strait of Hormuz until April 6. Trump says talks with Iran to end the war are going well, saying Iranian leaders were “begging to make a deal.” Tehran has dismissed Trump’s 15-point ceasefire plan. Trump’s announcement on social media came after U.S. stocks fell sharply Thursday and oil prices rose, as doubt took over again on Wall Street about a possible end to the war.
Israel has warned it will expand its campaign against Iran as Iran keeps firing missiles at Israel and Gulf Arab states. On Friday, Israel reported new missile launches from Iran and pushed more troops into southern Lebanon. The war has spread across the region and halted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. President Donald Trump extended a deadline tied to reopening the strait, while Iran denied it is negotiating. Iran accused the U.S. and Israel of intent to commit genocide at a U.N. human rights meeting. Lebanon reported new deaths from Israeli strikes near Beirut.
