Iran’s hardliners have warned of a “coup” as the US truce faces mounting pressure. Hardline figures allege President Masoud Pezeshkian and senior negotiators are sidelining supreme authority and violating the supreme leader’s directives during talks with Washington. The dispute has intensified amid renewed attacks and retaliatory strikes, which contributed to a fragile ceasefire becoming increasingly unstable. Several officials have drawn criticism, and lawmakers supportive of the deal have been removed from key roles, reflecting deepening fractures inside Iran’s power structure.
