Trump news at a glance: Trump wants to ‘go in’ to Iran to secure nuclear material, Netanyahu claims

Iran says it has responded to US peace proposal as ceasefire comes under strain and Israeli prime minister says war is ‘not over’

Benjamin Netanyahu has said the war with Iran will continue as long as the country has a stockpile of highly enriched uranium (HEU), which could be used to make nuclear warheads.

“It’s not over, because there’s still nuclear material – enriched uranium – that has to be taken out of Iran. There are still enrichment sites that have to be dismantled,” the Israeli prime minister told the CBS programme 60 Minutes, according to an excerpt published before its broadcast.

Top US Senate Democrats again try for war powers resolution – as it happened

As the prospect of a diplomatic resolution to end the US war on Iran remains in the balance, President Trump has directed some of his attention to attacking the media.

“For those people that still read The Failing New York Times and, despite the fact that Iran has been totally OBLITERATED, Militarily, and otherwise, you would think that Iran is actually winning or, at the very least, doing quite well — But that’s not true, and The New York Times knows that it’s FAKE NEWS!” Trump said in a Truth Social post on Monday afternoon.

Trump, who this morning posted an AI-generated image depicting him as Jesus Christ-like and later deleted it, also invoked rhetorical questions about “shame” and “decency.”

Iran war live: Trump says ‘whole civilisation will die’ in threat to Iran

As Trump’s deadline for Iran to open Hormuz nears, Tehran says will respond in kind to attacks on civilian facilities.

Iran war live updates: Trump warns 'entire civilisation will die' if Iran ultimatum expires

US President Donald Trump's deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz will expire at 10am AEST. 

Hours before that deadline, Mr Trump posted on social media that: "A whole civilisation will die tonight, never to be brought back again."

He has threatened to strike civilian infrastructure, including power plants and bridges, if the Islamic Republic does not cooperate with his demands.

The UN rights chief has warned that deliberate attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure is considered "a war crime".

"Under international law, deliberately attacking civilians and civilian infrastructure is a war crime," Volker Turk said in a statement.

How might the Strait of Hormuz be reopened? Here are 3 scenarios

The Strait of Hormuz crisis has reached a critical juncture. President Donald Trump has demanded Iran reopen the strait or the United States will further intensify its military assault.

While the strait has not been totally closed to shipping, it has been substantially disrupted and transits have effectively slowed to a trickle. The strait is economically and strategically unique due to the access it provides to the Persian Gulf from which there is no exit point. All shipping passes in and out a single waterway.

The key navigational choke point borders Iran to the north and Oman to the south. It’s only 29 nautical miles wide (53 kilometres) and consists of two-mile-wide (just over three kilometres) navigable channels for inbound and outbound shipping as well as a two-mile-wide buffer zone. This is all in Iranian waters.
