Iran Outlines 3 Conditions To End War With US, Israel Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian outlined three conditions for ending the ongoing conflict with the United States and Israel, stating that any resolution must recognize Iran’s “legitimate rights,” provide compensation for damages caused during the war, and ensure strong international guarantees to prevent future attacks. In a social media post, Pezeshkian emphasized that the war, which he attributed to the “Zionist regime” and the U.S., could only be resolved through these measures. He also reaffirmed Iran’s commitment to regional peace, citing discussions with leaders of Russia and Pakistan. Pezeshkian’s demands included reparations for damages incurred during the conflict and assurances that Iran would not face further aggression. He warned that without these conditions, the war would continue, highlighting the need for international support to safeguard Iran’s sovereignty. The president’s statements came amid escalating tensions, with Iran’s military spokesperson, Abolfazl Shekarchi, warning that the country would retaliate with “heavier operations” if its ports or economic centers in the Persian Gulf were attacked. Shekarchi stated that any threat to Iranian ports would make all regional ports legitimate targets, underscoring Iran’s readiness to escalate the conflict. The Iranian military also called on regional nations to expel U.S. forces from their territories, framing the conflict as a broader struggle against foreign domination. This rhetoric reflects Iran’s strategy of leveraging regional alliances to counter perceived threats.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to continue the war with Iran, declaring Israel had a "systematic plan to eradicate the Iranian regime," as Tehran refused to surrender. The pledge came amid escalating violence, with Iran launching waves of missiles and drones at Gulf neighbors while Israel and the U.S. conducted airstrikes targeting Iranian infrastructure. Netanyahu’s televised address on March 7, 2026, emphasized Israel’s determination to pursue the conflict "with all our force," despite Iran’s repeated retaliation. The attacks included a strike that set Tehran’s Mehrabad International Airport ablaze and another targeting an oil depot. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards claimed they had struck a U.S. military base in Bahrain, accusing it of using the facility to attack an Iranian desalination plant. The conflict expanded beyond Iran, with Israel intensifying air strikes on Lebanon, where Hezbollah, an Iran-backed militant group, operates. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned Lebanese President Joseph Aoun that his country would face "a very heavy price" if it failed to disarm Hezbollah. Meanwhile, Israeli commandos launched an unsuccessful mission to retrieve the remains of a 1986 air force navigator, resulting in 41 civilian deaths in Nabi Sheet. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian apologized for strikes on neighboring countries, attributing the attacks to "miscommunication," while also vowing to resist U.S. demands for "unconditional surrender." He accused Iran’s enemies of seeking to "take their wish for the unconditional surrender of the Iranian people to their graves." The war, now in its second week, began after joint Israeli and U.S. strikes killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.#hezbollah #iranian_president_masoud_pezeshkian #israeli_prime_minister_benjamin_netanyahu #iranian_revolutionary_guards #israeli_defense_minister_israel_katz
Iran sends first significant message of de-escalation, but with a major caveat Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian issued a statement on Friday announcing that Tehran would halt attacks on Gulf neighbors under specific conditions, but the announcement was immediately followed by large-scale strikes. The attacks, which included 16 ballistic missiles and 121 drones targeting the United Arab Emirates alone, occurred just days after the one-week anniversary of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s killing in US-Israeli strikes. Pezeshkian’s decision to pause attacks was framed as a conditional measure, with Iran reserving the right to retaliate if strikes originated from the territories of the United States or Israel. Since assuming office, Pezeshkian has consistently portrayed himself as a reformist leader seeking to mend Iran’s international image. His tenure has been marked by public apologies for economic mismanagement, the suppression of protests, and government inefficiencies. However, his recent remarks on behalf of Iran’s armed forces shifted focus to justifying the targeting of Gulf Arab states, emphasizing the necessity of defending the nation “with dignity and strength.” This rhetoric aligns with longstanding justifications used by Iranian leaders to rationalize military actions against regional adversaries. The ambiguity surrounding Iran’s strategic priorities deepens as the Leadership Council, of which Pezeshkian is now a member following the deaths of other key leaders in US-Israeli strikes, struggles to coordinate with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).#united_arab_emirates #supreme_leader_ali_khamenei #islamic_revolutionary_guard_corps #iranian_president_masoud_pezeshkian #leadership_council
