Trump says he will begin blockading Strait of Hormuz and 'any Iranian who fires at us will be blown to hell' after peace talks failed over Tehran's 'nuclear ambitions': Live updates

President Donald Trump has warned that US forces will immediately 'begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz'.The US President also said in his Truth Social post: 'I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. 'No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas. We will also begin destroying the mines the Iranians laid in the Straits. 'Any Iranian who fires at us, or at peaceful vessels, will be BLOWN TO HELL! Iran knows, better than anyone, how to END this situation which has already devastated their Country.' It comes after UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer urged both Iran and the US 'to find a way through' following failed peace talks. In a conversation with the Sultan of Oman, Starmer said a continuation of the ceasefire is 'vital' and that 'all parties avoided any further escalation'. Discussions between the two nations ended Sunday after 21 hours without a deal. In a second post on Truth Social, Donald Trump threatened to resume the conflict after peace talks failed yesterday, adding: 'At an appropriate moment, we are fully “LOCKED AND LOADED,” and our Military will finish up the little that is left of Iran.' Iran’s refusal to give up its nuclear ambitions resulted in a failure of negotiations, Trump said. He said that talks between Iran and the US in Pakistan lasted throughout the night and that points had been agreed to, but he said 'there is only one thing matters — IRAN IS UNWILLING TO GIVE UP ITS NUCLEAR AMBITIONS!' Hours after the US-Iran talks in Islamabad failed, President Donald Trump has warned that US forces will immediately 'begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz'. The US President also said in his Truth Social post: 'I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. 'No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas. We will also begin destroying the mines the Iranians laid in the Straits. 'Any Iranian who fires at us, or at peaceful vessels, will be BLOWN TO HELL! Iran knows, better than anyone, how to END this situation which has already devastated their Country.'
