Iran live updates: Trump says 'no more Mr. Nice Guy' if Iran refuses nuclear deal

The Israel Defense Forces said in a post to X on Wednesday that its strikes against alleged Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon continued through Tuesday.

Israeli operations were ongoing "north of the forward defense line," the IDF said, referring to a line inside southern Lebanon to which Israeli forces are advancing, which is intended as the forward boundary of a planned "buffer zone" along the Israeli-Lebanese border.

The IDF also said there were "several incidents" of drone attacks on Israeli forces operating in southern Lebanon on Tuesday, in which one soldier was "lightly wounded."

The Trump administration is taking additional action against nearly three dozen entities and individuals accused of operating Iran’s shadow banking networks.

The administration says these entities and individuals allow the Iranian regime to evade sanctions and pocket “tens of billions of dollars.”

"By dismantling these financial channels, we advance the Administration’s policy in the conflict with Iran and underscore our commitment to imposing maximum pressure on Iran,” State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott said in a statement.

Israel will continue to destroy terrorist infrastructure in southern Lebanon "just like in Gaza,” Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said on Tuesday.

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and I have instructed the IDF to destroy every terror infrastructure in the security zone up to the yellow line, below and above ground, just like in Gaza,” Katz said.

"The IDF has now destroyed an underground terror infrastructure in Qantara, Lebanon, in a huge explosion, inside the new security zone," Katz said.

A ceasefire has in place since April 16 but strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon have continued. Hezbollah has also continued to target Israeli troop positions in southern Lebanon.

Iran signaled Tuesday that it is not standing down in its dealings with the United States amid the war.

Iran said it does not consider the war over. Despite the ceasefire, Iran said it is actively updating targets, continuing training, and producing and upgrading weapons. "Conditions remain those of wartime," Mohammad Akraminia, Iranian Army spokesman, said on Tuesday.

Akraminia said Iran's response to future attacks from the U.S. would be severe.

"We have many cards we have not yet played. We possess new arenas of war, new tools, and new methods of fighting based on the experiences of the two previous wars. We have many cards we have not yet played. We possess new arenas of war, new tools, and new methods of fighting based on the experiences of the two previous wars. We can certainly respond to the enemy more decisively and more crushingly," he said. "We can certainly respond to the enemy more decisively and more crushingly."
