Iran live updates: Trump says Israel 'never talked' him into war with Iran

In an interview with Bloomberg on Monday, President Donald Trump said that it is "highly unlikely" that he extends the ceasefire if a deal is not reached before the deadline, which the president said is Wednesday evening ET.

The president also doubled down on his blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, saying, “I’m not opening it up.”

“They want me to open it. The Iranians desperately want it opened. I’m not opening it until a deal is signed,” Trump said, according to Bloomberg.

“Israel never talked me into the war with Iran, the results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON,” the president wrote.

Trump also said in the post that if Iran's leadership is "smart, Iran can have a great and prosperous future!"

The U.S. Embassy in Baghdad issued a fresh warning to American citizens of the danger posed by Iranian-aligned militias in Iraq, as the country reopened its airspace and some commercial flights resumed.

"Iraq's Iran-aligned terrorist militias continue planning additional attacks against U.S. citizens and U.S.-associated targets throughout Iraq, including in the Iraqi Kurdistan region," the Embassy said in a post to X. "Some entities associated with the Iraqi government continue to provide effective political, financial and operational cover to these terrorist militias."

"Iraq's airspace has reopened and limited commercial flights have resumed. U.S. citizens considering air travel through Iraq should be aware of the ongoing risks of missiles, drones and projectiles in Iraqi airspace," the Embassy wrote.
