US-Iran ceasefire negotiations near collapse as both sides escalate ahead of expiration deadline
A two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran is set to expire Wednesday, with a second round of talks proposed for Islamabad failing to materialize as Iran denied participation following a US seizure of an Iranian-flagged tanker in the Gulf of Oman. Trump threatened to destroy Iranian infrastructure including power plants and bridges if a deal is not reached, while Iran's IRGC fired on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. Axios reported internal US administration uncertainty about whether Iran's negotiating team has authority to speak for the IRGC.
