Iranian media reports that Iranian officials have proposed six conditions for a ceasefire.

According to Mars Finance, on March 22, multiple Iranian media outlets, including Mehr News Agency, reported that an anonymous Iranian official stated in an interview with Lebanon's "Afdal" TV that Iran has proposed six conditions for a ceasefire. The report quoted the official as saying that some mediators in the Middle East have proposed a ceasefire to Iran, but Iran has stipulated that six conditions must be met. These six conditions are: first, a guarantee that war will not occur again; second, the closure of US military bases in the Middle East; third, reparations from the aggressor to Iran; fourth, an end to fighting on all fronts in the region; fifth, the establishment of a new legal system for the Strait of Hormuz; and sixth, the trial and transfer of media personnel engaged in anti-Iranian activities. The official stated that based on the current military situation, Iran believes a ceasefire is unlikely in the near future and will "continue to punish the aggressor" until it "learns its lesson from history." The official also said that Iran's current actions within the framework of a "defensive war" are based on a plan formulated several months ago, which is being implemented in stages. According to reports from Iranian state television and other media outlets on the 22nd, the Iranian armed forces stated that Iran's operational strategy has shifted from defense to offense, and battlefield tactics have been adjusted accordingly.
