According to the Iranian leadership, the war will not end through military pressure alone but through a settlement that recognises Iran’s rights and ensures long-term security. The announcement comes as missile strikes and air raids continue across several Iranian cities and tensions rise across the Middle East.
Tehran says it remains open to peace but insists that any ceasefire must address the damage caused by the conflict and prevent similar attacks in the future. The statement also signals that Iran expects the international community to play a role in guaranteeing regional stability.
Iran-Israel War Latest Update: What Are the Three Conditions of Iran to End the War?
Iran’s government has presented three main conditions that it says must be fulfilled before the war can come to an end. These demands focus on political recognition, financial compensation and security guarantees.
- The first condition is that Iran’s ‘legitimate rights’ must be recognised. Tehran argues that any peace arrangement must respect the country’s sovereignty and political standing in the region.
- The second demand is ‘compensation for the damage’ caused during the conflict. Iranian officials say airstrikes and military operations have destroyed infrastructure and caused civilian casualties, and those responsible must pay reparations.
- The third condition calls for ‘firm international guarantees’ that Iran will not face similar attacks again. Tehran believes such assurances are necessary to prevent future military escalation. In a post on the social media platform X, President Pezeshkian explained Iran’s stance and emphasised that Tehran remains committed to peace in the region.
“Talking to leaders of Russia and Pakistan, I reaffirmed Iran’s commitment to peace in the region. The only way to end this war, ignited by the Zionist regime and the US is recognising Iran’s legitimate rights, payment of reparations, and firm international guarantees against future aggression,” he wrote.
Iran-Israel War:Â Iran Warns of Major Retaliation if Ports Are Attacked
While presenting its peace conditions, Iran has also issued a strong warning to its adversaries about possible escalation. Iranian military officials say any attack on the country’s ports or maritime infrastructure could trigger a wider regional response.
Abolfazl Shekarchi, spokesperson for Iran’s armed forces, said Tehran would target strategic locations across the Persian Gulf if its own ports were attacked. He warned that Iran’s military can strike economic and transport hubs across the region. “If our ports and docks are threatened, all ports and docks in the region will be our legitimate targets,” armed forces spokesman Abolfazl Shekarchi said.
He further cautioned that the Iranian armed forces could launch stronger operations if the conflict intensifies. “We will carry out a heavier operation than what we have done so far,” he added. Shekarchi also urged countries in the region to reconsider hosting American forces. “We call on the countries of the region to expel the Americans from their lands,” he said.
Iran-Israel War: Israel Unsure Whether War Can Bring Regime Change in Iran?
Despite continued military pressure, Israeli officials reportedly believe the war may not necessarily lead to the collapse of Iran’s political system. According to reports, internal discussions among Israeli authorities suggest there is no clear evidence that Iran’s ruling structure is close to falling.
Even after intense bombing campaigns and targeted strikes on military leaders, there are no signs of a nationwide uprising against the government. Analysts say fear of government crackdowns and ongoing airstrikes may be discouraging people from protesting.
The conflict has already resulted in significant losses for Iran’s leadership. Several senior military commanders have been killed during strikes, and the war has also caused large numbers of civilian casualties and widespread destruction of infrastructure.
However, experts believe political change in Iran is unlikely to occur quickly, even under sustained military pressure.
Iran-Israel War: Damage & Sanctions Deepen Iran’s Economic Crisis
Beyond the battlefield, the conflict is also worsening Iran’s already fragile economy. Years of international sanctions had already placed heavy pressure on the country’s financial system, and the war has further strained resources.
Airstrikes and missile attacks have damaged buildings, transport networks and public facilities in several cities. Reconstruction costs are expected to be enormous, while trade disruptions are affecting economic activity across the region.
At the same time, the Iranian population continues to face rising inflation, job losses and shortages of essential goods. Earlier protests over economic conditions had already highlighted public frustration before the war began.
