Iranian state media has reportedly signaled readiness for a potential resumption of war with the United States, amid uncertainty over whether Iran will be able to agree on a unified proposal. This comes even after being granted an additional three to five days under the ceasefire, as hardline Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members clash with Iranian government officials over whether to concede to American demands or go down fighting.

"Iranian officials and IRGC-affiliated media are signaling readiness for the imminent resumption of war," an analysis by the Institute for the Study of War found.
IRGC-affiliated Tasnim News Agency reported that Iran has prepared for a new phase of fighting. Tasnim added that Iran has assessed the likelihood of renewed conflict as high over the past two weeks and has conducted certain military redeployments and prepared new target lists accordingly. Iranian Judiciary Chief Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejei separately assessed that the likelihood of renewed U.S. and Israeli attacks is high and emphasized the need for preparation. An unspecified senior Israeli security official told Israel’s state broadcaster that Israel is preparing for the resumption of fighting with Iran as well. The official assessed that the United States and Iran will fail to reach any understanding and noted that Israel is ready to immediately resume the war.
