Iran has prepared its missiles to strike US-linked locations worldwide after US President Donald Trump threatened to bomb the country. According to News, the Iranian military has placed missiles in underground bases across the country, ready to launch if necessary.
Trump recently warned Iran of “bombing like never before” if it did not agree to a new nuclear deal with the US. He also hinted at reintroducing heavy economic sanctions if Iran refused to cooperate.
During his first presidency, Trump withdrew the US from the 2015 nuclear deal (JCPOA), which had limited Iran’s nuclear activities in exchange for lifting sanctions. While Trump says he is open to discussions, he insists that Iran must first commit to nuclear restrictions.

Iran’s newly elected President, Masoud Pezeshkian, responded by rejecting direct talks with the US but said that indirect negotiations through Oman could continue. He stressed that Iran is not against negotiations but believes the US must first prove it can be trusted.
Tensions remain high as both countries stand firm on their positions, leaving the future of US-Iran relations uncertain.
