Abstract

The article focuses on the ongoing conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran amid escalating military attacks and a looming ceasefire deadline set by then-President Donald Trump. Despite Trump’s ultimatum for Iran to agree to a ceasefire and reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz, US and Israeli forces continued strikes on Iranian targets, including oil infrastructure and transportation networks, while Iran launched missile and drone attacks on Saudi Arabia and Israel. The conflict has resulted in thousands of deaths and significant disruptions to global energy supplies, with warnings from the United Nations about potential war crimes and concerns over economic fallout. Negotiations remain uncertain, with Iran demanding sanctions relief and compensation before allowing free passage through the strait, and both sides preparing for continued hostilities.
