According to Iran International, Mohsen Rezaee, the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, stated that Iran has set seven conditions for resuming ceasefire negotiations with the United States. However, the details of these conditions have not been made public in available reporting.

Iran continues to address damage to its energy infrastructure caused by the recent conflict. Before the war, Iran's gas production capacity was approximately 650 million cubic metres per day. Attacks have reduced this output by about 230 million cubic metres daily, which represents more than a third of total capacity. Iranian officials have indicated that approximately 100 million cubic metres per day could be restored within the coming months, though this would still represent less than half of the lost capacity.

Rystad Energy, an energy research organisation, estimated in April that repairing damage to Iran's energy infrastructure could cost as much as 19 billion dollars. This figure covers repairs to gas processing, refining and export facilities, but does not include the broader economic impact of lost production and disrupted exports.
