00:00Iran says it will not engage in direct talks while the U.S. and Israel continue to escalate
00:06attacks. Tehran adds that it has also finalized demands amid proposals to end the war, but will
00:12only reveal them when appropriate. Earlier, Iran confirmed it has received Pakistan's proposal to
00:18end hostilities and was reviewing it. The peace plan reportedly involves a two-tier approach with
00:24an immediate ceasefire, followed by a comprehensive agreement. The country previously rejected
00:30reopening the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for a temporary ceasefire. A senior official had said
00:35Tehran will not accept being pressured to accept deadlines or ultimatums. The response comes after
00:42U.S. President Donald Trump set a Tuesday deadline for Iran to reopen the strait or face raids on its
00:49power plants and bridges. Iran warned of a devastating retaliation if the U.S. and Israel were to
00:55target civilian infrastructure. Fresh aerial strikes were also reported across the region
01:01on Monday, with latest U.S.-Israeli attacks killing at least 34 people across Iran.
