"Iran has told the United Nations it will consider bases, facilities and assets of the "hostile force" in the region as legitimate targets if it faces military aggression. US President Donald Trump's rhetoric towards Iran "signals a real risk of military aggression," Iran's permanent mission to the United Nations said in a letter to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. The letter added that while Iran did not want a war, the country's military would respond "decisively" if subjected to military aggression."
"US President Donald Trump has said 10 to 15 days would be enough to make a decision whether to strike Iran. That is "pretty much the maximum" he would give Iran to make a deal over its nuclear program, Trump said. "We're either going to get a deal, or it's going to be unfortunate for them," he told journalists on an Air Force One flight on Thursday."
"What you need to know Trump said the 'maximum' he would give Iran to make a deal is 10-15 days Iran can't continue to threaten the stability of the region, Trump said US first began building up military presence in region several weeks ago in response to repression by Iranian authorities Iran holds annual military drills with Russia amid US fleet movements We're rounding up some of the major developments on US-Iran news here:"
Donald Trump set a 10–15 day ultimatum for Iran to reach a deal over its nuclear program, warning of consequences if no agreement is reached. The White House acknowledged numerous reasons that could justify a strike but said diplomacy remains the first option. The US has rapidly increased its military presence near Iran, starting several weeks earlier in response to repression by Iranian authorities. Iran told the United Nations it would consider bases, facilities and assets of the "hostile force" legitimate targets if faced with military aggression. Iran said it does not want war but would respond decisively to any aggression. Iran holds annual military drills with Russia amid US fleet movements.
