Trump declares, “The interim agreement is over,” as U.S. forces launch additional strikes on Iran

The United States carried out new military strikes against Iran on 2026 year 7 month 7 and 8, while Trump declared during the same period that the interim agreement was over and warned of additional attacks. This directly affects markets and geopolitical tensions.

The U.S. military said through Central Command (CENTCOM) that it had launched airstrikes against multiple targets. The statement said that the operation had been carried out and that the necessary targets had been struck.

U.S. defense authorities announced in a confirmation on 7 month 8 that the new round of strikes had been completed. The specific scale of the damage and the number of casualties were not disclosed.

Trump said the interim agreement had ceased to be effective and warned that the U.S. military could take further action depending on the circumstances. In the same remarks, he also said that a full-scale war did not appear likely to resume.

Shortly after the announcement, the Nasdaq index temporarily turned higher. The index's reaction was characterized by a mix of short-term gains and losses.

As military operations and remarks by senior officials followed one another, uncertainty in the relevant region and global financial markets is increasing. Attention should be paid to further announcements and official statements.
