- Trump said reports of Iranian rearmament are not confirmed and offered no evidence, while urging Tehran to enter talks and calling potential consequences "more powerful" than before.
- He warned Hamas it has a short period to disarm under the ceasefire plan, saying there would be "hell to pay" if it fails to do so and asserting Israel has met its commitments.
- No concrete steps were announced to move into Phase Two of the U.S.-brokered Gaza ceasefire, which envisions interim governance and a stabilization force but remains stalled.
