President Donald Trump has repeatedly extended deadlines for Iran to negotiate or open the Strait of Hormuz, with the latest shift moving the deadline from Monday to Tuesday. Trump has threatened severe consequences if Iran does not comply, including the destruction of infrastructure. Despite Iran rejecting a ceasefire proposal, Trump insists the new deadline is final. The U.N. has warned against targeting civilian infrastructure, but Trump remains unconcerned about potential war crimes. Previous deadlines have been extended as Trump alternated between threats and claims of progress in negotiations. The situation remains tense as the deadline approaches without a deal.
