WASHINGTON: U.S. President Donald Trump has once again issued a warning against Iran. He said that U.S. representatives are heading to Islamabad for peace talks with Iran, and warned that if no agreement is reached, the U.S. will attack Iran. Trump also stated on Truth Social that all of Iran's energy facilities and bridges could be destroyed.

Trump also condemned the recent firing by Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. He accused Iran of violating the ceasefire agreement. 'Iran decided to fire bullets yesterday in the Strait of Hormuz — A Total Violation of our Ceasefire Agreement! Many of them were aimed at a French Ship, and a Freighter from the United Kingdom. That wasn’t nice, was it? My Representatives are going to Islamabad, Pakistan — They will be there tomorrow evening, for Negotiations,' Trump wrote.

The U.S. delegation is travelling to Islamabad for the second round of talks. So far, Iran has not given any official response about participating in the discussions.
