Iran is preparing live fire drills in the Strait of Hormuz following tensions ratcheting up between Tehran and the U.S., according to Iranian state media. “Hopefully Iran will quickly ‘Come to the Table’ and negotiate a fair and equitable deal – NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS – one that is good for all parties. Time is running out, it is truly of the essence!” Trump said on Truth Social. Also on Wednesday, Iran’s mission to the United Nations warned of a response “like never before” after Trump’s Truth Social threat. An activist group said Tuesday that more than 6,000 people have been killed during Tehran’s crackdown on recent protests in Iran.
