Iran says agreed to much of the draft text of a potential deal, but claimed the US had repeatedly shifted its position. Aljazeera reported.
Earlier, Trump had warned that the US would hit Iran “very hard” tonight, adding that Washington will take over Iran’s Kharg Island and other oil infrastructure points.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry has condemned the US strikes on the country, saying that it has rendered the ceasefire “practically meaningless”.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) launched retaliatory strikes on US forces in the region, including in Kuwait, Bahrain and Jordan, according to Iranian news reports. Iran’s military also ordered the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz to all vessels.
