Trump Threatens to Blast Iran 'Back to the Stone Ages' on Truth Social, Claims Iran Wants Ceasefire

President Trump posted on Truth Social claiming that Iran's president had requested a ceasefire, though Iran's government had previously denied seeking one. Trump stated the U.S. would only consider a ceasefire once the Strait of Hormuz was 'open, free, and clear,' threatening: 'Until then, we are blasting Iran into oblivion or, as they say, back to the Stone Ages!!!' Multiple sources noted it was unclear who Trump was referring to as 'Iran's New Regime President' since Iran still had the same president. Iran's Foreign Minister had previously vowed to continue fighting, directly contradicting Trump's ceasefire claim. The post came amid ongoing tensions over the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil shipping route. The inflammatory rhetoric raised concerns among military experts and international observers about potential escalation of U.S.-Iran conflict.
