Amid backchannel diplomacy, Iran is said to have dismissed the US proposal, signalling it will dictate the terms of any ceasefire.

The US Department of Defence on Wednesday announced three agreements with defence contractors to boost the production of missiles and other components to replenish dwindling supplies used in the Middle East war.

The extensive use of interceptor missiles by the United States, Israel and Gulf states to counter Iranian retaliatory attacks has raised concerns about stockpile levels.

Lockheed Martin and BAE Systems agreed to a fourfold increase in the production of a key component known as “seeker heads” for THAAD, a high-altitude anti-missile system that has seen significant use in the Middle East.

The agreement puts the “industrial base on a wartime footing,” the Department of Defense said in a press release.

At the end of January, Lockheed Martin had already announced plans to accelerate its THAAD production from around 100 to about 400 units annually within a few years.

The Pentagon also announced a second agreement with Lockheed Martin to “accelerate” production of Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM), tactical ballistic missiles used for the first time against Iran. They succeed the Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS).

Lockheed Martin confirmed the order to quadruple output of the PrSM missiles, saying it builds on a previous $4.94 billion contract awarded by the US Army last year.

In a third deal, Honeywell Aerospace agreed to boost the production of “critical components for America’s munitions stockpile,” including navigation systems, according to a DoD press release.

This comes as Iranian state television, citing an unidentified senior official, reported that Iran had rejected a peace plan proposed by the United States to end the Middle East war.

Amid backchannel diplomacy, Iran is said to have dismissed the US proposal, signalling it will dictate the terms of any ceasefire.

“Iran has responded negatively to an American proposal aimed at ending the ongoing imposed war,” the official said, according to the English-language broadcaster Press TV.

“The end of the war will occur when Iran decides it should end, not when Trump envisions its conclusion.”

There has been no official Iranian statement on the reported peace plan.

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, who led pre-war talks with the United States, has yet to comment.

However, Iranian media outlets such as the Mehr and Tasnim agencies have picked up the Press TV report.

Earlier on Wednesday, two senior Pakistani officials said that — in an effort to mediate — Islamabad had conveyed to Iran a 15-point plan containing US proposals to end the nearly month-long war.

According to the same unidentified Iranian official cited by Press TV, Tehran has put forward its own five conditions for ending hostilities.

These include ending “aggression and assassinations” against the country and its leaders, establishing a robust mechanism guaranteeing that neither Israel nor the United States will resume the war, and compensation for the destruction caused, with a view to reconstruction.

Iran’s conditions also include a cessation of hostilities on all regional fronts and against all “resistance groups” — an implicit reference to the Tehran-backed Lebanese group Hezbollah.

The official is also reported as saying that Tehran wants international recognition and guarantees of Iran’s rights to exercise its sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, the key maritime route for global trade at the centre of the current war.

The terrorist Iran go hear am.

Are they ordering the missiles from space?

They are running out of stock and can’t even keep up with the barrage of Iranian drone ready to wreck havoc!

Using $4 million yo intercept $30K

Now, they over $39 trillion in debt and remitting $2 billion per day! All for war!

That country better learn from China on what they did with half of that. $40 trillion in debt and the entire country cannot even boast of a speed train, free or even subsidized healthcare, or affordable tertiary education.

All they did with $40 trillion was war and still got humiliated by Iran!

Ordering hyper inflated junks marketed by Hollywood to be superior, efficient, reliable and cost saving. Now the world knows the case is the opposite.

Expensive metal scraps put together with the IQ of a Nigerian roadside welder, and marketed with Hollywood war films.

The Arab League begged Trump to wait for them to talk to Iran before he destroyed their energy. They give Trump a gift ship of oil. But Trump gives them 5 days.

Pakistan was trying to mediate for Iran. But the terms of the White House will be difficult for Iran.

Sure, America will lose men and weapons. But Iran will be defeated like Iraq.

The boot will soon be on the ground. But it will come from people who want to go to Iran and not be forced. Their rewards will be promotion and other special packages and benefits.

America has the money and manpower, and Iran is not a match with Israel alongside.

Iran was just fortunate to be on a better geographical location, which was highly favored in this war with the closing of the Strait of Hormuz.

They needed boots on the ground with heavy tanks and air superiority support. Head straight to those underground mountains and destroy all their missiles and weapons hidden underneath them.

The question should be when Iran will fall and not whether it will fall or not.

They need to obliterate this Iran to carpet grass level.
What isolence

Just after few weeks of his war, he is now short of missiles. Smh.

Iraq is now emboldened to chase out the US from post-Saddam Iraq and now declared their independence from US that has been stealing iraqi oil. Iraq PM , 2 days ago, in an unprecedented manner, gave the Iraqi PMF and military the permission to start attacking US interests within Iraq. Iraq , like Iran, has started selling their oil to China and recieving yuan.

Trump is going to beg Iran las las.

Israel says it has received some 8,000 tons of weapons and military equipment during Iran war

Trump: 'Don't need anything from NATO, but we won't forget they didn't help with Iran'
U.S. President Donald Trump attacked NATO amid the member states' refusal to assist in opening the Strait of Hormuz. "NATO nations did nothing to help with deranged Iran, which has now been militarily decimated. The U.S. needs nothing from NATO, but we will not forget this important point in time!" Trump wrote on Truth Social.

US embassy tells citizens to leave Iraq amid attacks from Iran-backed militias
By Lazar Berman
Iran-backed militias in Iraq are launching attacks on US citizens and US-associated targets in the country, the American embassy in Baghdad says.
The embassy advises US citizens to leave Iraq immediately, and to avoid the embassy in Baghdad and consulate in Erbil “due to ongoing risks from rockets and drones in Iraqi airspace.”


Report: US considering diverting weapons intended for Ukraine to Middle East forces
The Pentagon is considering diverting weapons intended for Ukraine to U.S. military forces stationed in the Middle East, as the war with Iran depletes some of the U.S. military's critical ammunition. This was reported by the Washington Post.

So the US really did put forward a truce proposal with Iran? Starting a war only to act like you want peace, honestly, it’s almost laughable.

Anyway, that’s their affair, what actually worries me is the rising fuel price.

All these will come at a heavy cost

Don't push it, Iran. This will never happen

It's about to go down

I pity Iran

Trump you are not trying at all

Trump's posturing in the last 2 days - trying to come up with talks and a ceasefire plan - was to make Iran look like the warmonger

It has worked

Funny you.

If the US couldn't defeat rag tag Afghanistans due to the difficult terrains,is it Iran they would now defeat having it in mind that Iran has a more difficult terrain than Afghanistan.

Thank you my brother

Iran may end up like Iraq.

They don't stand any chance in this war.

They will lose the Strait of Hormuz forever!

Expensive metal scraps put together with the IQ of a Nigerian roadside welder, and marketed with Hollywood war films.

On day one of the war, Iran launched 90 to 100 ballistic missiles in the first 12 hours and thousands of Drones (UAVs).

As of March 25-26, Iran launched 10 to 15 ballistic missiles in 24 hours and dozens of Drones (UAVs).

We can both see who is getting tired and broke from the war. It's clearly not the US or Israel.

Don't worry!

Boots will soon be on ground.

I blame Trump for being too lenient and looking for a quick victory.

Hit them so hard this time Mr Trump.

adamkkk:

What isolence

If it where to be you would you give in easily without a revenge.

Everytime US and Iran are making progress with diplomatic negotiations is when Israel always strikes.

Looks like you are the only one with a working brain here. I was telling somebody something yesterday. Trump has gotten the leverage to unleash hell on Iran without backlash especially from Americans.

And I hope you,Barron Trump and Melania would be in the Frontlines to fight the war?

I thought dem say na Iran dey look for peace deal

Iran will learn
That is a fact.



2026 - Iran
2027 - Pakistan
2028 - Turkey

They said the world won't have peace, but we will show them that peace belongs to Jehovah and his Children.
Just like the Philistines, Amalek, Ammonites, Hittites, Jebusites, Perizzites, etc., they must see the might of the hand of God.
God bless his children here on earth. May victory continue to be theirs.

If words of mouth could put boots on the ground, the US would have had at least 10 million boots on ground.

Doers don’t make noise but do it!

How many times have that narration aired in last 3 weeks?

Iran should collect the deal ooooo

Needless posturing, Isreal is writing save our soul letter to the UN while you engage in media braggadocio.

-Kiss the truth!

Let us see who will win the face to face war

This War don wear Agbada.
We don't know who is doing propaganda in the war again.
