The United States and Iran exchange strikes after negotiations reportedly fail, with President Donald Trump describing Iran’s position as a desire for a negotiated outcome. According to CBS News, Trump tells reporters that Tehran “wants to make a deal so badly,” after additional U.S.-Iran strike exchanges occur. CBS reports that the U.S. launches new waves of strikes as the ceasefire ends, citing U.S. CENTCOM assessments that about 90 military targets are hit in one round described as taking place Wednesday. The reports also indicate Trump had previously characterized Iran’s stance based on what he says Iran communicated to him, though the timing and details of any potential negotiations remain unclear. Across the coverage, the common elements are continued strike activity, Trump’s public statements about Iran’s desire for a deal, and uncertainty about when or whether talks resume. The accounts do not describe a signed agreement or confirmed ceasefire at the time of reporting.
