Trump Demands Iran Surrender as US Asserts Control Over Strait of Hormuz

US President Donald Trump has stated that Iran must "put up the white flag of surrender" following the expiration of the memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the two nations on Monday.

Speaking to US media, Trump reported that his administration is currently engaging in discussions with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps, although the IRGC has explicitly denied this claim.

Meanwhile, Iranian officials have signaled that they could pursue a more aggressive approach in the ongoing conflict with the US now that the MoU has officially expired.
