Iran’s military warned of “more devastating and widespread” retaliation if civilians are targeted, following a reported missile strike in Haifa that killed at least two people at the weekend. However, the escalation comes amid continued U.S. pressure over reopening the Strait of Hormuz signalling a sharp intensification in both military and geopolitical stakes.
U.S. President Donald Trump threatened severe strikes on Iran’s infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened by his deadline, however, reports suggest backchannel talks on a potential 45-day ceasefire are underway.

Hamas has refused to consider disarmament while key ceasefire conditions remain unmet, warning that such demands undermine ongoing negotiations.
