U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the military on July 25 not to launch any new airstrikes on Iran that day, ending a run of daily attacks that had lasted nearly two weeks, or 13 consecutive days, according to a report cited by Odaily and attributed to China Central Television. The report said Trump had previously approved strike plans submitted by the military each day, but after receiving a new operational plan on July 25, he chose not to authorize it and instead ordered a pause. It remains unclear whether the move was a one-day arrangement or the start of a broader suspension of military operations. Hours before the order was issued, an Omani delegation had arrived in Tehran for talks on a new arrangement to reopen shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Two regional sources familiar with the negotiations said progress had been made and that Oman and Iran could reach an agreement by the weekend, after which Trump would decide whether to accept the proposal.

The report said Trump had previously signed off on strike plans submitted by the military each day. After receiving a new operational plan on July 25, however, he did not approve its execution and instead directly ordered a pause in airstrikes for the day.
It is not yet clear whether the decision was only a temporary one-day arrangement or a sign that military action could move into a suspension phase.
