Iran's Araghchi Says Tehran to Respond to US Peace Plan Within Days as Pentagon Prepares Fresh Strikes

Tehran says it will answer through mediators as the Pentagon weighs fresh strike options and shipping through Hormuz falls 27%, Reuters reported.

  • On Thursday, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araghchi said Tehran will respond to the US peace proposal "within the next few days," amid ongoing diplomatic exchanges through mediators.
  • During last month's United Nations General Assembly , Araghchi proposed a 'Seven-Day Plan' to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, requiring ceasefires, lifting naval blockades, and releasing frozen assets.
  • The Pentagon instructed US Central Command to prepare for potential strikes, as US and Israeli officials told Axios that major combat operations could resume before the November 3 midterm elections.
  • Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen to roughly 74% of pre-war volumes, with tanker attacks reaching their highest frequency since the conflict began, per recent reports.
  • Qatari mediators relayed US feedback last week, though President Donald Trump previously rejected the proposal, and Tehran insists the strait remains closed until its conditions are met.
