President Donald Trump has reportedly rejected a seven-day ceasefire proposal put forward by Iran, raising questions about what comes next in the standoff between Washington and Tehran.
Analysts following the situation say Trump may be weighing a resumption of military action against Iran, with some suggesting he could wait until after November's US midterm elections before deciding on next steps.
The rejection leaves the current stalemate between the two countries unresolved, with no clear sign of a near-term diplomatic breakthrough despite Iran's proposal.
Observers say the timing tied to the midterms reflects broader political considerations in Washington, adding another layer of uncertainty to how the conflict may develop in the coming months.
