Iran War Live: War Enters Second Week, Trump Says No Deal Until ‘Unconditional Surrender’

The ongoing conflict involving Iran, the United States and Israel has entered its second week, with fresh missile strikes and military operations reported across several parts of the Middle East. The escalation has raised fears of a broader regional war and increased global concern over security and energy supplies.

US President Donald Trump said there would be no negotiations with Iran unless Tehran agrees to what he called “unconditional surrender”. The statement signals a tough stance from Washington as hostilities between the countries continue to intensify.

Trump stated that the United States and its allies would only consider ending the conflict if Iran completely backs down from its military actions. He also suggested that after such a surrender, international partners could assist in rebuilding Iran and supporting a new leadership structure in the country.

The war began after coordinated strikes by US and Israeli forces targeted Iranian military facilities and strategic sites. In response, Iran launched retaliatory missile and drone attacks against Israel and areas linked to US forces in the region.

Since the conflict began, multiple air strikes and missile interceptions have been reported across several Middle Eastern cities. Security alerts have also been raised in Gulf countries amid fears that the fighting could spread further.

The conflict has also affected global markets, with oil prices rising due to concerns about possible disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important oil shipping routes.

While several international leaders have called for restraint and diplomatic dialogue, no formal peace talks have been announced so far. Military operations continue as the situation across the region remains tense and unpredictable.
