The White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, said that the US is waiting for Iran’s response.
While briefing the media, she said that the US President, Donald Trump, has extended the deadline with Iran.
But he has not announced any deadline to the ceasefire yet, she added.
Karoline said, “The ceasefire has been extended, but the ‘Operation Economic Fury’ continues.”
Leavitt added that Iran should hand over their uranium enrichment to the US.
The White House spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, says no deadline has been set for a ceasefire, adding that the situation remains under review.
She says, “I think President Trump ultimately will dictate the timeline, and he will do so when he feels it’s in the best interest of the US and the American people.”
Karoline said, “The US naval blockade has ceased the movement of ships and vessels that are moving to and from Iranian ports. We are completely strangling their economy through this blockade. They’re losing $500 million a day.”

She added, “The Kharg Island is completely full. They can’t move oil in and out. They can’t even pay their own people as a result of this economic leverage that President Trump has inflicted over them.”
“The timeline will be dictated by the Commander-in-Chief and the President of the United States”, said Karoline.
Leavitt, “There’s a lot of internal fraction and internal division, which, again, just proves the effectiveness of Operation Epic Fury in the first place.”
She further said, “Their regime and many of its leaders for nearly five decades have been wiped off the face of planet Earth.”
The press secretary said that Iran has been not only significantly weakened and obliterated militarily, but it is losing economically and financially every single moment that passes with this blockade.
“So the President is going to continue to lead the free world, to run the United States of America as we await the Iranian response”, she said.
