IRGC Aerospace Force commander Saeed Majid Mousavi claimed Iran is rapidly rebuilding its missile and drone stockpiles at an accelerated pace, saying “the enemy is not capable of creating such conditions for itself.” Meanwhile, Iranian reports say Tehran is preparing for a possible surprise strike by the U.S. and Israel, signaling heightened alert levels. An ABC News correspondent who spoke with President Donald Trump said he described Iran as having committed a “serious violation” of the ceasefire, but added he still believes a deal can be reached. “It will happen—one way or another. The good way or the hard way,” Trump said. In Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has requested to delay his court testimony citing urgent security and diplomatic constraints. Taken together, the messaging and military posture suggest a region on edge, where conditions for renewed conflict may be quietly taking shape.
