Iranian state media said Tehran has suspended mediator-led negotiations and document exchanges with the United States, citing Israeli strikes on Lebanon and ceasefire violations across multiple fronts. Iran and the Axis of Resistance said they will fully block the Strait of Hormuz and open other fronts, including the Mandeb Strait, to punish Israel and its supporters. Iranian officials demanded Israel immediately halt military operations in Gaza and Lebanon and fully withdraw from occupied areas in Lebanon before talks resume; Iran said it will not negotiate until those conditions are met.
