US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has requested a ceasefire from the US, but stressed that the proposal will only be considered after the Strait of Hormuz is restored to being "open, free and navigable."

In a post on social media, Trump stated that strong military action against Iran will continue until then. The White House said he will deliver a major address on Iran at 9 p.m. Eastern Time.

It has not yet been confirmed whether Iran acknowledges the reported ceasefire request, nor is it clear whether it was conveyed through a third party. Analysts noted that even if the president has made such a statement, the final decision will depend on Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei.
