Sharjah24 - AFP: US President Donald Trump has extended the ceasefire with Iran, saying the move is intended to allow more time for diplomatic negotiations. He stated that the truce will remain in place until Iran presents a proposal to end the conflict.

Continued maritime restrictions

Despite the extension, Trump confirmed that the United States will maintain its blockade on Iranian ports, with military directives issued to continue enforcing the measure.

The decision was announced via Trump’s Truth Social platform, where he linked the ceasefire extension to ongoing efforts to reach a broader resolution while sustaining pressure through existing restrictions.
