In Brief…

• US President Trump warned on Tuesday that “a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again” if Iran’s leaders fail to accept the US demands by Tuesday night. “I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. “
• “Iran will be sent back to the stone ages tomorrow night if they fail to engage in a serious way,” the White House said in a statement Monday night.
• On the eve of his deadline for Iran to agree a deal, President Trump said the country could be “taken out in one night.”
• Iran has conveyed its official response to a US proposal to end the war through Pakistan, the government’s news agency IRNA reported, saying Tehran rejected a ceasefire and instead called for a permanent end to the conflict on its own terms.
