Tehran has rejected a 48-hour ceasefire proposal initiated by the United States, according to a report by the semi-official Fars News Agency on Friday.

Citing an anonymous source, the Iranian media outlet stated that Tehran declined the short-term truce. The proposal was reportedly delivered to Iran on Wednesday via a third-party intermediary, though the specific country involved remains undisclosed.

This diplomatic effort follows heightened tensions between Iran and the US-Israeli alliance. While Iran’s position appears firm, the United States has not yet officially confirmed or commented on the proposal.

The rejection adds a layer of uncertainty to the Middle East’s volatile security situation, leaving it unclear if regional tensions will de-escalate in the near future.
