Iranian Regime Media Rejects Trump’s Claim That Tehran Requested Strike Halt

Iranian regime-aligned media rejected President Donald Trump’s claim that Tehran asked Washington to cancel a planned attack after deal outlines were agreed. Military sources quoted in Iran called the statement a “new lie” and said Iranian forces remained at their highest readiness, warning that the battlefield would determine the outcome if confrontation became unavoidable. A separate regime-aligned report described Trump’s account as a repeated allegation and treated his conditions, including reopening the Strait of Hormuz and ending Iran’s nuclear threat, as a wish list. Trump said Israel had joined his commitment to pursue a rapid agreement.
