Explosions Reported At Qeshm Near Hormuz As Trump Says 'No Rush' To Bomb Iran
Multiple powerful explosions were reported on Iran's Qeshm Island and nearby Bandar Lengeh near the strategic Strait of Hormuz. Local air defenses engaging targets overhead amid reports of limited US strikes against Iranian positions. US President Donald Trump stated he is in "no rush" to decide on resuming military action against Iran, keeping diplomatic options open while leaving potential strikes on the table.
In a phone interview with Axios, Trump said, "One way or the other, we will do something, but there is no rush." He claimed that US economic pressure had severely weakened Iran's financial position, leaving the country short of money and gasoline and frustrated population. He also indicated that communications with Tehran were continuing, although he questioned the pace and seriousness of Iranian negotiators.
