A senior Iranian military official has warned that a renewed conflict with the United States appears “likely,” as stalled diplomacy continues to deepen tensions between the two sides.

Speaking on Saturday, Mohammad Jafar Asadi of Iran’s Khatam Al Anbiya central command said recent developments suggest Washington cannot be relied upon to honour agreements.

“A renewed conflict between Iran and the United States is likely,” he said, according to Iran’s Fars News Agency, adding that evidence indicates the US is “not committed to any promises or agreements.”

His remarks come as negotiations between Tehran and Washington remain deadlocked, with US President Donald Trump recently criticising Iran’s latest proposal aimed at reviving talks.
