Iran-US-Israel War News Live Updates: The United States said it is expecting a response from Iran on a proposal to end the ongoing conflict, as tensions continue in and around the Strait of Hormuz with reports of fresh clashes and diplomatic activity. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Washington could hear from Tehran soon. “We should receive a response… today,” Rubio told reporters.
Iran’s Fars news agency reported “sporadic clashes” between Iranian and US naval forces in the Strait of Hormuz, indicating that the situation remains unstable.
What is happening now: The crisis has intensified after Iran rejected a US-backed proposal at the United Nations, calling it “flawed” and “politically motivated”. Tehran said the plan would not resolve the conflict and accused Washington of trying to justify its actions through international institutions.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said: “Every time a diplomatic solution is on the table, the US opts for a reckless military adventure.” He also questioned whether the US approach was a “crude pressure tactic”.
