🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran says a deal to end the war is still FAR off, and the overnight fireworks prove it.

A senior Iranian official said the 2 sides remain far apart, and Tehran won’t accept Washington’s “excessive demands.”

Iran’s order of business: meet its conditions first, THEN Hormuz reopens, and nuclear talks come after that.

Overnight, the U.S. hit targets on Iran’s Qeshm Island in what it called defensive strikes on missile sites used against American assets.

The IRGC, for its part, claims it shot down a U.S. MQ-9 drone over Hormuz.

The official warned Iran is ready to hit back hard at any U.S. strikes, in the region and beyond.

Qatari mediators flew into Tehran last night with a draft deal, while FM Abbas Araqchi says Iran is in talks with Saudi Arabia on a regional security setup with no foreign militaries involved.

Trump says Iran is in a hurry, but Iran is acting like it has all the time in the world.
