US President Donald Trump has announced that he will pause attacks on Iran's energy plants for 10 days at Tehran's#IranUSConflict request and said talks with Iran were going "very well," although an Iranian official dismissed a US proposal for ending the conflict as "one-sided and unfair."#TrumpSeeksQuickEndToIranWar

The war has killed thousands of people, spread to neighbouring nations and hit the global economy with soaring energy prices since the US and Israel launched strikes on February 28.

On Thursday, Trump threatened during a cabinet meeting at the White House to increase pressure on Iran if it did not make a deal, before later posting on social media that he would pause attacks on Iranian energy plants for 10 days until April 6 2026 (0000 GMT on April 7).$BTC
