Donald Trump has announced a fresh delay in potential military strikes on Iran’s energy facilities, extending the pause by another 10 days. The new deadline pushes any possible action to April 6, according to international media reports.

Speaking to reporters, Trump said the decision was made after a request from Tehran. He claimed that negotiations with Iran are moving in a “very good direction,” raising hopes of a possible diplomatic breakthrough. However, Iranian officials have not confirmed whether they requested the delay or agree with the US stance.

This is not the first postponement. Earlier in the week, Trump had warned of possible strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites but temporarily held back, setting a Friday deadline. That timeline has now been extended further, indicating a shift from immediate military action toward continued dialogue.

The development comes amid rising tensions between Washington and Tehran over nuclear and energy-related concerns. Analysts say the delay could provide both sides with a crucial window to de-escalate the situation and explore diplomatic solutions.

Despite Trump’s optimistic tone, uncertainty remains high. Without clear confirmation from Iran, questions persist about whether both sides are aligned on negotiations or simply buying time. The coming days are expected to be critical in determining whether diplomacy succeeds or tensions rise again.
