U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a fresh warning to Iran, declaring that Washington could launch new strikes if tensions continue to escalate. Speaking in Ankara, Trump said Iran would be hit "very hard again tonight," while criticizing Tehran’s position in nuclear negotiations. The remarks come as both sides exchange increasingly sharp threats following months of military confrontation. Iranian officials have responded by warning that their forces remain ready to retaliate against any new attack, with hardline voices threatening U.S. troops across the region. As the 60-day diplomatic window narrows, fears of another military escalation continue to grow.

The United States launched new strikes on Iran on Wednesday after President Donald Trump vowed to hit "hard" following Iranian attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The latest exchange of fire raised fears that the war in Iran could reignite.
