US President Donald Trump emphasized the complexity of retrieving uranium from Iran, labeling the process as 'long and difficult' due to the destruction of nuclear facilities by US strikes. In a post on Truth Social, he asserted that the military operation, dubbed 'Operation Midnight Hammer,' resulted in a complete obliteration of Iran's nuclear sites. Trump also criticized media outlets for not giving due credit to American pilots involved in the operation. Meanwhile, Iran is contemplating participation in peace talks with the US in Pakistan, although significant hurdles remain, particularly concerning ongoing US blockade violations. The ceasefire, which began on April 7, is set to expire soon, raising concerns about renewed hostilities. Additionally, tensions have escalated following the US military's interception of an Iranian vessel, which Tehran described as 'armed piracy.' The situation remains fluid, with uncertainty surrounding the potential for a new nuclear agreement that could surpass the 2015 deal.
