Iran warns of 'doomsday' war as Trump rejects plan to end conflict

Iran has warned it is prepared for a "doomsday" war with the United States, while President Donald Trump has rejected a seven-day Iranian plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end hostilities. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tehran remains open to diplomacy despite the rejection, insisting that "only a negotiated solution can break this deadlock." Trump reportedly told staff he expects to resume hostilities after November midterm elections, while also saying he expects more talks this week. Separately, UK counterterrorism police are investigating a possible Iran link to a suspected bomb plot near RAF Fairford, a base used by the US Air Force, after five men were arrested. Iran's IRGC also claimed it captured a US underwater drone in the Strait of Hormuz, a claim Washington rejected.
