Iran’s president says 14 million Iranians, including himself, have volunteered to sacrifice their lives in the war

  • On Tuesday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that over 14 million Iranians have volunteered to sacrifice their lives to defend the country, adding, "I too have been, am, and will be a sacrificer for Iran."
  • President Donald Trump set an "8:00 pm deadline" for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to global shipping, with Washington warning that sufficient time for agreement has already been given.
  • Earlier, Deputy Sports Minister Alireza Rahimi called on citizens to form "human chains" around power plants, a symbolic effort to deter potential airstrikes and protect critical infrastructure.
  • Trump warned on Monday that the objective would be to leave facilities "burning, exploding, and never to be used again" within a 4-hour window following the deadline.
  • Washington warned that there would be "no bridges, no power plants" after the deadline, stating the entire country could be taken out in one night, potentially as early as tomorrow.
