Iranian officials respond with laughter to Trump’s claim of ceasefire request

A senior Iranian official has reportedly laughed off US President Donald Trump’s assertion that Iran’s president had requested a ceasefire, according to Ali Hashem of Al Jazeera.

The comment comes on the heels of a statement made by Iran’s foreign minister earlier in the day, stating that his country is not seeking a ceasefire.

Details of the alleged conversation between Trump and Iranian officials are not available.
