Trump reportedly rejects Iran ceasefire and expects bombing to resume after midterms

(AP) President Donald Trump has rejected an Iranian proposal for a seven-day ceasefire and told aides he expects U.S. bombing of Iran to resume after the November midterm elections, according to The Wall Street Journal. The Journal, citing U.S. officials, reported Friday that Trump has turned down Tehran's proposal, which would halt hostilities, reopen the Strait of Hormuz and restart negotiations over Iran's nuclear program. Under the proposal outlined by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, Iran would reopen the Strait of Hormuz at the end of a seven-day period if Washington agreed to a series of conditions, including lifting its naval blockade of Iranian ports, waiving sanctions on Iranian oil sales, and observing a ceasefire that would include Lebanon. Araghchi said Thursday that Iran had presented the plan to the United States through intermediaries and that implementation could begin once Washington accepted the terms. The New York Times reported Friday that the proposal closely mirrors a memorandum of understanding reached by the United States and Iran in June but subsequently unraveled, although the new plan compresses the timetable for moving toward nuclear negotiations. The latest proposal came as U.S. and Iranian officials have renewed indirect diplomatic contacts in New York during the United Nations General Assembly. Reuters reported Thursday that U.S. and Iranian negotiators were exploring a phased arrangement under which Tehran would reopen the Strait of Hormuz while Washington lifted its economic blockade of Iran. The talks have included U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, meeting with Araghchi through Qatari mediation, according to the New York Times. The New York Times reported that Secretary of State Marco Rubio said a roughly three-hour meeting mediated by Qatar did not produce a breakthrough, although Iranian officials described the discussions as productive and said further contacts remained possible. Trump has continued to say that he expects the conflict to be resolved after the midterm elections. Axios reported Tuesday that Trump told the United Nations General Assembly that he expected the United States and Iran to reach a deal after the elections, while warning that he could instead take more aggressive military action. Trump has previously said the war could end immediately after the midterms, according to CBS News. The Journal's latest report goes further, saying Trump has told aides he expects U.S. bombing to resume after the elections, a prospect that would leave open the possibility of a renewed major military campaign if diplomacy fails. Axios had previously reported that some U.S. officials believed Trump could return to major combat operations after the midterms if no agreement with Tehran was reached, while Trump had declined to say whether he would make the decision before or after the elections. Iran, meanwhile, has pressed for a deal before the November vote. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Thursday that Tehran wanted an agreement before the U.S. midterm elections, while Araghchi said the seven-day proposal could provide a path toward reopening the strategic waterway and restarting comprehensive nuclear negotiations. The Strait of Hormuz has become a central issue in the diplomacy because it is a major route for global energy shipments, and the conflict has disrupted oil flows and contributed to higher energy prices. Reuters reported earlier this week that Iran had offered to reopen the strait within seven days if the United States eased military pressure and lifted its blockade of Iranian ports. Newsmax also reported Friday on Iran's seven-day proposal, including Tehran's offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and resume nuclear negotiations, as Washington weighs whether diplomacy can produce an agreement without further military action. © 2026 Newsmax.

Pentagon says 861 US military personnel injured after start of conflict with Iran
WASHINGTON, September 26. /TASS/. The total number of US military personnel injured since Israel and the United States launched military operations against Iran stands at 861, the Pentagon said. According to it, during the Epic Fury operation, which began in late February and ended on May 5, 418 US military personnel were injured and 14 killed. The Pentagon keeps separate foreign operations records of the losses incurred from July 7 to the present. It says five troops were killed and 443 wounded in the period. In early August, the total number of wounded amounted to 687. The United States and Israel launched a war against Iran on February 28. In June, Washington and Tehran signed a memorandum of understanding providing for an immediate cessation of hostilities on all fronts, including in Lebanon. However, on the night of July 8, the United States resumed large-scale strikes against Iran, accusing it of violating the agreements on the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran puts 7-day Hormuz reopening plan as Trump-Xi discuss Middle East war
Iran puts 7-day Hormuz reopening plan as Trump-Xi discuss Middle East war Trump and Xi discussed the Middle East war as Iran sent Washington a seven-day Hormuz reopening plan. The parallel diplomacy underscored mounting pressure to restore oil flows, curb regional attacks and bridge sharp nuclear differences. Iran pressed Washington on Friday to accept a seven-day plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and halt hostilities across the region, as US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping discussed the Middle East war at their summit. The diplomatic push came as the conflict continued to disrupt oil shipments through the strategically vital waterway, raising concerns over its impact on global energy supplies. China, heavily dependent on Middle Eastern oil, has a major interest in restoring the flow of energy through the strait. Xi urged the United States and Iran to return to a June framework agreement that had resulted in a brief ceasefire and resume negotiations toward a broader settlement, China's state news agency Xinhua reported. Trump, meanwhile, warned Xi against providing support to Iran, according to US Ambassador to China David Perdue. Perdue said China had assured the US that it would not support Tehran. The exchanges came as Iran and the US pursued indirect diplomacy at the United Nations General Assembly through Qatari mediators. IRAN'S SEVEN-DAY HORMUZ PROPOSAL Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tehran had conveyed a "concrete seven-day plan" to Washington through Qatar. "If the necessary conditions are met, the strait can be reopened, a normal maritime passage restored within seven days. The choice now rests with the United States," Araghchi told reporters at the UN on Friday. He said the seven-day period would begin once Washington accepted the proposal. Under the plan, Iran would reopen the Strait of Hormuz and halt hostilities across the region, including in Lebanon. In return, Tehran is seeking the lifting of the US blockade on Iranian ports, the release of frozen Iranian funds and the waiver of oil sanctions. A US official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Washington was engaged in "positive and constructive discussions" through mediators and that nuclear issues remained part of the talks. However, a senior Iranian official separately told Reuters that Tehran would not compromise on its nuclear programme even if Washington accepted the peace proposal. The official said Iran would retain what it considers its rights, including uranium enrichment, and would not agree to ship its highly enriched uranium out of the country. Trump has repeatedly said Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons. CONFLICT HAS SPREAD ACROSS REGION The seven-day proposal follows earlier diplomatic efforts that failed to produce a lasting end to the war, which began on February 28 with US and Israeli strikes. The conflict has since seen periods of fighting followed by temporary pauses. Thousands have been killed, while Iran's conventional military capabilities and already fragile economy have suffered significant damage. Iran and allied groups have also expanded attacks across the region. Iranian missiles and drones have targeted US allies in the Gulf, while the Iran-aligned Houthis in Yemen have attacked Saudi interests. Iranian-aligned militias in Iraq have also been blamed for a pipeline attack that temporarily disrupted additional Saudi oil supplies. In Lebanon, Iran-backed Hezbollah has continued fighting Israeli forces. US WARNS CHINA OVER IRAN SUPPORT Washington's warning to Beijing came amid reports that China had supplied Iran with shoulder-fired air-defence missile launchers and helped Tehran evade sanctions on its oil exports. Perdue said Trump had made clear to Xi that any direct or indirect support for Iran was "totally unacceptable". Asked whether China had agreed to stop assisting Iran, Perdue told Fox News, "They assured us yesterday they're not doing that." SAUDI ALLIES STRENGTHEN DEFENCE COOPERATION As the conflict widened, Saudi Arabia's partners moved to strengthen the kingdom's defence posture. Defence officials from Turkey and Pakistan met in Riyadh on Friday to assess the regional security situation and discuss intelligence sharing, military coordination and greater integration of capabilities, Saudi Arabia's Defence Ministry said. Turkish Chief of General Staff General Selcuk Bayraktaroglu met with Saudi Arabia's Chief of General Staff General Fayyadh bin Hamed Al-Ruwaili and Pakistan's Chief of Defence Forces and Chief of Army Staff Field Marshal Asim Munir in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The meeting followed talks between the Saudi, Pakistani and Turkish foreign ministers a day earlier under the framework of the Mecca Joint Defence Agreement. Meanwhile, the fighting in Yemen has triggered a worsening humanitarian situation. The UN children's agency UNICEF said on Friday that acute malnutrition among children was rising amid the continuing violence.
