Iran Rejects US Peace Plan as Conflict Widens
Iran's foreign minister has flatly denied that any negotiations with the United States are taking place, even as Trump insists Tehran wants a deal but is "afraid to say it." Tehran's parliament speaker simultaneously warned a regional neighbour against occupying Iranian islands, while Egypt has offered to host de-escalation talks. The US is pressing a 15-point plan that Iranian officials have dismissed as "maximalist."
