In a high-stakes escalation, former U.S. President Donald Trump has declared that he is not seeking a ceasefire with Iran but is instead aiming for a “complete victory.” Speaking from the White House, Trump revealed that he was holding an emergency meeting in the Situation Room to discuss developments regarding Iran, although he has not yet committed to direct military intervention.
“Israel is making significant progress in its war against Iran,” Trump stated, suggesting that Tehran is eager to negotiate but “cannot come forward due to the ongoing missile strikes” hitting Iranian territory.
He added, “They want to negotiate, but the time for that has passed,” while keeping the door open to future talks. Still, he reiterated his preference for decisive action, saying, “I don’t want a ceasefire—I want a full victory.”
Trump mentioned that he had formulated ideas about the appropriate response and noted that his views were fully aligned with the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff. He also confirmed discussions with Pakistan’s military leadership on the Iranian file.
He alleged that Iran was previously close to reaching a new nuclear agreement but also “just weeks away” from acquiring a nuclear weapon—presenting what he called a binary choice for the United States: either “fight or allow Tehran to obtain nuclear capability.”
Although he has yet to make a final decision, Trump acknowledged the possibility of upcoming talks between Washington and Tehran.
Israel-Iran Tensions Escalate as Airstrikes Intensify
Meanwhile, the Israeli military announced on Wednesday that over 50 Israeli warplanes conducted airstrikes on Iranian military targets in recent hours. According to the official statement, the targets included facilities believed to be part of Iran’s nuclear weapons development program.
The occupation army claimed that one of the primary targets was a centrifuge production facility in Tehran, allegedly used to accelerate uranium enrichment toward nuclear weapon production.
In response, Iran reported that its nuclear facilities remain in good condition, and claimed the downing of an Israeli F-35 fighter jet during the retaliatory strikes. The head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization, Mohammad Eslami, affirmed that the nation’s nuclear infrastructure is “secure,” adding, “The morale of our nuclear staff is high, and they are continuing their work with full resolve.”
The Israeli military further claimed that among the targets struck were weapons manufacturing plants, including sites for raw material production and assembly bases for ground-to-ground missiles, which Israel accuses Iran of launching toward Israeli territory and continuing to deploy.
Rising Fears of a Wider Regional War
This latest round of military escalation has intensified global fears of a regional war that could drag in major powers and destabilize the broader Middle East. With both nuclear tensions and conventional warfare on the rise, observers warn of a dangerous tipping point as Washington, Tel Aviv, and Tehran navigate their next moves.
While Trump’s rhetoric signals a potential shift toward direct U.S. involvement, Iran’s military posture and strategic messaging suggest a refusal to retreat—bolstered by domestic resilience and regional alliances.
This work demands time, pressure, and sacrifice.
But we do it—for the Ummah, and for the truth.
