US Iran Conflict: Tension between America and Iran seems to be increasing once again. US President Donald Trump has claimed that three US Navy warships came under attack while passing through the Strait of Hormuz, although these ships did not suffer any damage. Trump said that the Iranian attackers suffered heavy losses in retaliation.

Trump’s big claim

Posting on the social media platform ‘Truth Social’, Trump said that three state-of-the-art destroyers of the US Navy successfully passed through the Strait of Hormuz. He wrote that these ships were attacked, but the American warships did not suffer any damage, while the Iranian attackers were heavily damaged.

Warned Iran of more attacks

Trump warned Iran that if Tehran does not sign the agreement soon, America will take more harsh and violent action in the future. He said that America is still ready for the agreement, but Iran will have to take a fast decision. The US Army said that action was taken against its military bases in response to Iranian attacks. America says that retaliatory military action was taken after its warships were attacked.

Tension increased again after ceasefire

This latest clash has taken place at a time when the situation had calmed down somewhat after the ceasefire that came into effect from April 8. This ceasefire came into effect after several weeks of attacks on Iran by America and Israel. Iran’s military alleged that the US targeted two ships entering the Strait of Hormuz and also carried out attacks on Iranian territory. The Joint Command of the Iranian military said that the US attacked an Iranian oil tanker and another ship in violation of the ceasefire.

Allegation of attack on civilian areas

Iran also alleged that the US carried out airstrikes on civilian areas of Qishm Island in the Strait of Hormuz and the mainland’s Bandar Khamir and Serik coastal areas. According to the Iranian army, in retaliation it targeted American military ships located in the eastern part of the Strait of Hormuz and south of Chabahar port.

Ongoing controversy regarding nuclear program

This tension has increased at a time when Washington is waiting for Iran’s response to the US proposal. The aim of this proposal is to end the conflict, but many major disputes, including Iran’s nuclear program, are still unresolved. The increasing military activities between America and Iran have further increased the tension in West Asia. Experts believe that if the situation between the two countries does not improve soon, a major crisis may arise in the region.

US President Donald Trump has once again shown a tough stance towards Iran. He has clearly said that if Iran takes any wrong step, America can start military action again. However, along with this, Trump also said that he is considering a new proposal from Iran, whose purpose is to end the currently stalled conflict.

Reports by Iran’s Tasnim and Fars news agencies have claimed that Tehran has sent a 14-point proposal to America through Pakistan. This proposal calls for ending fighting on all fronts. Besides, a suggestion has also been made to build a new system for the Strait of Hormuz, which is a very important oil route for the world.

What did Trump say on military action against Iran?

When Trump was asked about this proposal before leaving for Miami from Florida, he said that he has been informed about this deal and its complete details will be revealed soon, but later he also said on social media that he does not think that this proposal will be accepted.

He also added that Iran has not yet had to pay as much of a price for its actions as it should have. When Trump was asked whether military action could be taken again, he avoided giving a direct answer and said that it remains a possibility. He said that if Iran did anything wrong, the situation could change. Some reports also say that this proposal includes setting a deadline of one month to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, lift the US Navy blockade and end the conflict related to Iran and Lebanon. Only after this, a plan has been announced to start further talks on Iran’s nuclear program.

Situation may worsen again – Iran

Iran has also made it clear that the situation may worsen again. Mohammad Zafar Asadi, a senior Iranian army officer, said that it is difficult to trust America and there could be another conflict between the two countries. At the same time, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi said that now it is up to America to decide whether it adopts the path of dialogue or continues confrontation. He also said that Iran is prepared for both situations.

Iran Kharg Island Attack: Rapid attacks were carried out on Iran’s most important oil base ‘Kharg Island’. This attack took place just before the end of the deadline given by US President Donald Trump, in which he had given Iran time till 5:30 am (Indian time) on Wednesday to open the ‘Strait of Hormuz’. After these attacks, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) have given an open warning saying that now their ‘patience has reached its limits’.

According to Iran’s news agency ‘Mehr’, the oil export center located on Kharg Island has suffered heavy damage in these attacks. Let us tell you that this island is like a backbone for Iran, because 90 percent of Iran’s crude oil is sent from here to the world. There is a capacity to store about 3 crore barrels of oil here. After this attack, there is now a danger of stopping the supply of crude oil all over the world.

Iran’s counter threat: ‘Will turn everything into ashes’
Shocked by the attack, the Iranian Army (IRGC) has warned America and its allies in plain words. Iran has said that it will now target gas and oil facilities close to America and will cut off fuel supplies to the entire region for years. He clearly said that if Iran’s assets were damaged, the energy bases of other countries in the Middle East would be turned into “heaps of ashes”.

Donald Trump’s tough stance and 48 hours’ time
This tension increased further when President Trump said last week that the US Army could capture the island. In a sharp statement on Sunday, Trump reprimanded Iran and gave a deadline to clear the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours. Even before this, America had attacked the military bases and missile bunkers of Kharg Island, but then the oil wells were abandoned.

Iran rejected ceasefire plan
These attacks have taken place at a time when America had proposed a new ceasefire to stop the war that has been going on for the last 6 weeks, which Iran rejected outright. Iran says that it is not going to bow down.

Why is ‘Kharg Island’ special?
Located about 16 miles off the coast of Iran, this island is also called “Forbidden Island” because there is tight security guard here. It is about 300 miles away from the Strait of Hormuz and the entire world’s economy depends on the oil supply from this island. Now after these attacks, there is a fear that the prices of petrol and diesel will go up in the global market.

Amidst the ongoing war in the Middle East, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has given a big message by writing an open letter to the American people. He said, ‘The people of Iran have no animosity in the hearts of ordinary Americans and the people of the two countries should not be seen against each other.’

Masood Pezeshkian wrote in the letter that the people of Iran do not hate the people of any country, this also includes the people of America. He called it not a political matter but a deep thought and principle. This statement came before US President Donald’s address to the country.

Questions were also raised on the perspective of western countries

The President of Iran also questioned the attitude of Western countries in which Iran is being shown as a threat. He said that this picture neither matches the history nor the reality of today. He also raised questions on America’s military action and asked whether there was really any threat from Iran due to which such steps had to be taken? He also said that the death of civilians and damage to infrastructure is not right in any way and it also affects the image of America. Pejeshkian also pointed out whether America got involved in this war under someone else’s influence. He directly raised the question whether America is taking this step for Israel.

Old cases also mentioned in the letter

The Iranian President also mentioned in the letter old issues, such as the 1953 coup, long-term sanctions and past conflicts, which weakened trust between the two countries. Despite this, he said that Iran never chose the path of attack on its own, but only protected itself. Stating that the world is at a critical juncture, he said that the path of confrontation is now proving to be more costly and useless. He appealed to carry forward dialogue and understanding. In the end, he asked the American people not to rely only on one-sided information and try to understand Iran and its people.

Donald Trump Statement: US President Donald Trump has given a big statement amid the ongoing tension between America, Israel and Iran in the Middle East. Trump has said that this war is now almost at an end. He has also given a strict warning to Iran that it should not try to do any wrong thing. Speaking to CBS News on Monday, Trump said that this war is now almost completely over.

In fact, on February 28, America and Israel together launched a military attack on Iran. This joint military action gradually turned into a major conflict. After this, many countries of the Middle East reached the brink of regional war. Speaking to CBS News reporters, Trump said that now this fight is largely over.

‘Iran’s military strength is almost finished’

Trump said that Iran’s military capability has suffered huge damage. He said, “They no longer have a navy left. Their communication system is destroyed and their air force is also almost destroyed. Their missile systems are disintegrated. Their drones are being shot down everywhere and their factories making drones have also been destroyed.” Trump claimed that Tehran now has almost nothing left in terms of military power.

When this war started, Trump had said that America’s action against Iran would last for at least four to five weeks. But on Monday he said that America has gone far beyond its set deadline and this conflict may end soon.

Trump’s strict warning to Iran

The US President also gave a strong warning to Iran. He said that the Islamic Republic should not try to do any trick or new thing. Trump said, ‘He has run whatever he wanted to run. Now if they try to do any trick then it will be the end of that country. If they do anything wrong, Iran will be destroyed and its name will never be heard again.

Big claim on Strait of Hormuz

Trump also said that the Strait of Hormuz is now open and ships are passing through there. He claimed that America is also considering taking control of this important sea route.

Defense Department said- the fight has just started

This statement of Trump has come at a time when the US Defense Department has said that America’s war has just begun. The effect of this increased tension in the Middle East is also visible on the markets around the world. Especially fluctuations in oil prices are being seen, because this area is considered a major center of oil supply in the world.
