What Happened
The White House confirmed Thursday that President Trump extended the military ceasefire with Iran without a fixed deadline, while continuing economic pressure through naval blockades. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated the truce halts direct military strikes but 'Operation Economic Fury' continues, costing Iran approximately $500 million daily. The pause remains until Iran submits a unified negotiating proposal.
