Iran has officially rejected a 45‑day ceasefire proposal put forward as part of international mediation efforts aimed at pausing the ongoing conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, according to state media and foreign ministry statements. Tehran’s response, conveyed through mediators, makes clear that it won’t agree to a temporary truce unless there’s a permanent end to the war and firm guarantees that future attacks won’t occur. Instead of accepting a short‑term ceasefire, Iran has set out broader conditions, including an immediate and lasting cessation of hostilities and assurances against renewed military action before it would consider reopening the strait. Iran’s stance reflects deep mistrust of temporary agreements amid escalating regional tensions. � Reuters +1 #IranWar #CeasefireRejected #MiddleEastCrisis #StraitOfHormuz #BreakingNews
