Iran stops negotiations with U.S., vows to 'completely' block Strait of Hormuz: State media
Tehran says the pause follows Israeli strikes on Hezbollah as oil prices jumped nearly 8% on fears the conflict could widen, traders said.
- On Monday, Iran's negotiating team suspended indirect message exchanges with the United States via mediators, citing Israeli military strikes in Lebanon as a violation of ceasefire preconditions.
- Tehran demands an immediate halt to Israeli operations in Gaza and Lebanon, plus full Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory, before resuming diplomatic communications, according to the Tasnim News Agency.
- Beyond the diplomatic pause, Tehran and allied groups have placed the potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz and activation of additional regional fronts on their agenda, Tasnim reported.
- Oil prices surged over 2 per cent amid fears of broader conflict, while Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf warned that Tehran will not approve any agreement unless its 'rights' are guaranteed.
- The United States Central Command confirmed it carried out 'self-defence strikes' on Iranian radar and drone facilities over the weekend, responding to what it described as aggressive actions.
