PANews reported on April 5th that, according to Cailian Press, US President Trump posted on social media, reiterating his tough stance on the Iran issue. He stated that he had previously given Iran 10 days to reach an agreement or open the Strait of Hormuz. Trump indicated that the deadline was approaching and warned that if the US demands were not met, further action could be taken "within 48 hours."

Iranian Armed Forces Khatham Anbia Central Command Commander Abdullahhi responded that the Iranian military will firmly defend national rights, protect state assets, and make the aggressors pay the price. Abdullahhi said that after a series of defeats, Trump has acted "helplessly, panicked, unbalanced, and foolishly," attempting to threaten Iranian infrastructure and state assets. Abdullahhi emphasized that if the United States and Israel launch such attacks, "we will launch unrestricted, sustained, and devastating strikes against all infrastructure used by the US military and Israeli infrastructure." He reminded the US and Israel that since the start of this war imposed on Iran, "everything we have said has been done."
