Iran rejected a U.S.-backed 45-day ceasefire tied to reopening the Strait of
Hormuz. Donald Trump reaffirmed a Tuesday 8 p.m. deadline, warning of potential
strikes on Iranian infrastructure if access is not restored. U.S. officials said
military preparations are underway targeting energy assets. Trump called
Tehran’s counterproposal “not good enough,” though “a significant step.” He also
raised the possibility of fees on Hormuz shipping and confirmed an investigation
into a military leak.
