JAKARTA - US President Donald Trump said the United States agreed to continue talks with Iran. But Trump reiterated that Washington had told Tehran, the ceasefire was no longer in effect.

"The Islamic Republic of Iran has asked us to continue 'talks'. We have agreed to do so," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social, Friday, July 10.

"However, the United States has told them very firmly, the Ceasefire has ENDED!"

continued Trump.

The US launched repeated strikes against Iran this week after Tehran targeted a number of vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. However, Trump did not order any additional attacks on Thursday.

A diplomat told CNN that Qatari negotiators, who are coordinating with the United States, have left for Iran to meet with officials there.

Previously, a US official told CNN that the Trump administration's strategy was to launch an attack and then temporarily halt military operations in an effort to prevent further escalation and give diplomacy room to continue.
