US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday aboard Air Force One that Iran had contacted the US seeking a deal but questioned whether Tehran could be trusted to uphold any agreement. Trump said the US had already “won militarily” and that there were “many ways” to achieve a victory.

"There are many ways we can win it. We already won militarily and they have a little left and they want to make a deal so badly. They called a little while ago, they want to make a deal so badly. I just do not know if they are worthy of making a deal. I do not know if they can honor the deal, that is the problem," Trump said.

Iranian lawmaker Morteza Mahmoudi said on Wednesday the US would receive a “powerful” response for what he called its attacks on Iran in recent nights. In a post on X, Mahmoudi praised Iranian forces and criticized officials he said had placed their hopes in promises from "the country’s enemies."

"Undoubtedly, America will receive a decisive response to the crimes it committed tonight and last night. Pray for the warriors and defenders of our country who stand with their lives on the line in the midst of the battlefield, protecting these borders and lands, and for the guidance of those officials who have pinned their hopes on the enemy's promises," Mahmoudi said.

US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday his stop in the UK on his way from Turkey to the US required “virtually no deviation” from his planned flight path.

Hardline influencer Davood Modaresian on Wednesday called for retaliatory strikes against Israel, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar after what he said were attacks on four Iranian provinces.

US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday a US response was in retaliation for what he described as Iran’s bombing of ships the previous day, warning that any further attacks would bring a more severe response.

"This is in retribution for yesterday’s bombing of ships by Iran. If it happens again, it will get much worse!" he posted on Truth Social.
