US Israel Iran War Updates Live: Iran has responded to the latest U.S. proposal aimed at ending the conflict in the Persian Gulf, using Pakistani mediators to deliver its message on Sunday. However, U.S. President Donald Trump swiftly dismissed Tehran’s reply, calling it “TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!” in a social media post, dealing another blow to diplomatic efforts to ease tensions that have disrupted global shipping and pushed up energy prices.According to Iranian state television, Tehran rejected the U.S. proposal, describing it as a demand for surrender. Iran instead called for war reparations from Washington, full sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, the lifting of sanctions, and the release of frozen Iranian assets.The latest U.S. proposal reportedly sought to end the conflict, reopen the crucial Strait of Hormuz shipping route, and curb Iran’s nuclear activities.Trump did not elaborate on why the Iranian response was rejected. In an earlier post, he accused Tehran of “playing games” with the United States for nearly five decades, warning: “They will be laughing no longer!”U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz said Washington was still giving diplomacy “every chance we possibly can before going back to hostilities,” during an interview with ABC.Meanwhile, Iran’s new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, who has not appeared publicly since the conflict began, reportedly met with the head of Iran’s joint military command and issued “new and decisive directives” to continue operations and confront adversaries, according to state media.
