‘Totally defeated’ Iran wants a deal, claims Trump after two weeks of Operation Epic Fury — ‘Not a deal that I would...’

Following two weeks of intense military operations dubbed 'Operation Epic Fury', U.S. President Donald Trump claimed that Iran is now seeking a deal amidst allegations of being 'totally defeated'. This assertion comes in the wake of significant strikes on Iranian targets, including recent explosions reported on Kharg Island, a strategic location previously targeted by U.S. forces. According to Iran's Fars news agency, at least 15 explosions were recorded, accompanied by plumes of smoke rising from the area. The escalating conflict has raised concerns about regional stability and the potential for a diplomatic resolution. While Trump expressed a willingness to negotiate, he clarified that any agreement would not align with the terms previously proposed. The situation remains fluid as both nations grapple with the consequences of their actions and the search for a path forward. As the international community watches closely, the possibility of a diplomatic breakthrough seems uncertain amid the ongoing military tensions.
