A senior Iranian official has stated that the country will not reopen the Strait of Hormuz for a temporary ceasefire arrangement, despite a strongly worded warning from US President Donald Trump.
The official confirmed that Tehran has received a ceasefire proposal sent by Pakistan and is reviewing it, but emphasized that the Americans 'lack the readiness for a permanent ceasefire.'
Trump had earlier posted a message on social media, urging Iran to 'open the F***in' Strait, you crazy b****rds, or you'll be living in Hell.'
The US President also hinted at potential targets for US-Israeli forces, declaring that 'Tuesday will be Power Plant Day'.
A draft proposal seeking a 45-day ceasefire and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz has been sent to Tehran and Washington, but it remains uncertain whether either country will accept the terms.
