Iran live updates: Trump says Tehran has 'last chance,' Houthis attack Saudi Arabia

Trump said in the Oval Office that Iran has a "last chance" to make a deal.

President Donald Trump announced "major combat operations" against Iran on Feb. 28, with massive joint U.S.-Israeli strikes targeting military, government and infrastructure sites.

Delegations from the U.S. and Iran entered negotiations in June aimed at a war-ending deal based on a memorandum of understanding signed by both countries.

The U.S. and Iran have nonetheless continued to exchange strikes, with the strategic Strait of Hormuz the primary flashpoint.

Majed al-Ansari, the spokesperson for Qatar's Foreign Ministry, said during a press conference in Doha on Tuesday that "efforts are still ongoing with all the parties" to end the war between the U.S. and Iran.

"We are looking towards a diplomatic resolution as we are speaking right now. As you know, there are current efforts on the ground that are in very progressive stages, and we are working with all the parties," Ansari said.

Ansari said that there is no agreement, but added that "things may change in the coming hours or days, we don't know."

The Qatari spokesperson said that a return to a ceasefire and ensuring the safety of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz were necessary to facilitate further negotiations. Qatar, Pakistan and Oman are all "working together on that issue," Ansari said.

"Our focus right now is on avoiding escalation, reopening the Strait and reopening the door for diplomacy between the parties," Ansari said. "What we do not want to see right now is a major escalation in our region as the events were leading toward that direction."

"Right now, we don't have anything on the books when it comes to direct talks," Ansari added.

"We are hopeful that if we can get a resumption of the talks anytime soon, we'd be able to push forward towards a major deal that would help us walk back into a situation of peace in our region," he said.

Yahya Saree, the official spokesperson of the armed forces of the Houthi rebels in Yemen, said in a post to X on Tuesday that Houthi forces launched an attack on the Najran Airport in southwestern Saudi Arabia, close to the border with Yemen.

The U.K. Maritime Trade Operations Centre (UKMTO) said that a cargo ship reported being hit by an "unknown projectile" off the coast of Oman on Monday.

President Donald Trump said during an Oval Office signing event that this is Iran’s “last chance” to make a deal.

When asked about the number of times he’s called off strikes after threatening them, the president responded, “I don't know. I think we're going to maybe get something, but
