Iran says it will escalate if US does not honour deal within weeks
A senior official said Tehran will take necessary military action if Washington fails to meet the deal's terms within weeks, Reuters reported.
- On Monday, a senior Iranian official told Reuters that Tehran has shifted to a "fully offensive" strategy, setting a deadline of a few weeks for the United States to fully implement the June memorandum of understanding or face military action.
- The June memorandum set a 60-day timeframe for Washington and Tehran to reach agreement on nuclear issues but collapsed after President Donald Trump declared it "over" on July 7 amid disputes over Strait of Hormuz control.

- Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that normal shipping through Hormuz will not resume until the U.S. returns to the deal, while Trump posted on Truth Social that preventing Iranian nuclear weapons remains his paramount objective.
