The lines are hardening.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian called U.S. peace offers "unconstructive and contradictory" on Monday.

Pezeshkian said in a statement on X that Iran has a "deep historical mistrust" of the U.S. that has colored negotiations.

"Honoring commitments is the basis of meaningful dialogue. Deep historical mistrust in Iran toward U.S. gov conduct remains, while unconstructive & contradictory signals from American officials carry a bitter message; they seek Iran's surrender. Iranians do not submit to force," Pezeshkian wrote.

The U.S. Navy has denied reports of food shortages aboard vessels operating in the Middle East on Sunday.

The office of the Chief of Naval Operations addressed the claims in a post on X, saying U.S. sailors remain well fed and well stocked.

"Statement on Claims of Food Shortages aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Tripoli: Recent reports alleging food shortages and poor quality aboard our deployed ships are false," the office wrote.
