Khaberni - Sources for Fars News Agency revealed that Iran rejected an American proposal for a 48-hour ceasefire.
The source added that the proposal was presented on Wednesday through another country, which was not named in the report, and there has yet to be any comment or confirmation from the American side.
The war in Iran erupted on February 28, 2026, following widespread airstrikes by the United States and Israel under the operations "Epic Rage" and "Lion's Roar," targeting vital and military facilities and command centers in Tehran and several other cities, leading to the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on the first day, along with a number of senior officials and leaders, including the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council Ali Larijani, and prominent leaders of the Revolutionary Guard.
In response, Iran launched "True Promise 4," firing hundreds of missiles and drones towards Israel and countries in the region, and closing the Strait of Hormuz, causing a spike in energy prices.
The war extended to Lebanon on March 2, after Hezbollah fired rockets at Israel following the assassination of Ali Khamenei, prompting the latter to respond with widespread airstrikes and a ground incursion into the south.
