Trump says Iran is ready to negotiate a ceasefire but he's not ready to make a deal

Trump says Iran is willing to negotiate a ceasefire but terms must be solid; 13 U.S. service members have died since conflict began, officials said.

  • On Saturday, President Donald Trump said he is unwilling to make a deal now because the terms remain insufficient and any agreement must include Iran's complete abandonment of nuclear ambitions.
  • After strikes on Kharg Island, U.S. Central Command reported precision attacks on 90 military targets while preserving oil infrastructure, but Trump said, 'we totally demolished Kharg Island, but we may hit it a few more times just for fun.'
  • Thirteen active U.S. service personnel have died since the conflict began, UAE data shows 1,475 drones fired as of March 10, and U.S. gas prices rose from $2.94 on March 1 to $3.66 on Saturday.
  • Securing the Strait of Hormuz, Trump said he is asking China, France, Japan, South Korea, and the UK to help secure the strait and that naval escorts are possible.
  • Mixed messaging from the U.S. administration has complicated diplomacy as Trump questioned whether Iran's new supreme leader is even alive, urging surrender if so on Saturday.
