Iran's central military command, led by General Ali Abdollahi Aliabadi, publicly rejected U.S. President Donald Trump's ultimatum that threatened to destroy Iran's vital infrastructure if a peace deal was not accepted within 48 hours. Aliabadi described Trump's statement as 'helpless, nervous, unbalanced, and stupid,' and warned that escalating attacks would lead to severe repercussions for the U.S. and Israel, stating that the 'entire region will become a hell' for them. The conflict has now entered its sixth week, with the situation exacerbated by the slim chances of peace talks and a downed American airman reportedly on the run in Iran. Trump had previously issued a similar ultimatum on March 26, emphasizing the urgency for Iran to negotiate, or face dire consequences as he described it on social media.
