Vice President JD Vance expressed uncertainty over next steps with Iran, saying he expects it to be “really messy,” in an interview released Wednesday.

He also claimed that the U.S. would not be involved in an indefinite bombing campaign and declined to divulge his personal stance on the war.

“I don’t know exactly where this is going to go, but I think fundamentally we are on the right trajectory. It’s just going to be really messy, and there’s going to be a lot of stops and starts,” Vance said.

The vice president claimed the mid-ceasefire escalation from Iran was the result of a “freak out” among hard-liners within Iran over the increase in oil passing through the Strait after the MOU was signed, and that “pragmatists” in Iran are still looking to negotiate.

Vance said the U.S. is currently navigating a “delicate diplomatic dance,” adding that they are still “trying to talk to the pragmatists.”

President Donald Trump said in a social media post on Wednesday that Iran has released a wrongfully detained American citizen – and added that the U.S. “appreciates this gesture of Goodwill by Iran!”

Trump said the woman was wrongfully detained in December 2024 but has now been allowed to leave the country.

Trump added that, “She is now safely outside of Iran, and in good condition.”

In a statement, the woman’s lawyer identified her as Dena Karari, a U.S.-Iranian citizen who the lawyer said “has been trapped in Iran on bogus charges of collaboration with a hostile state and espionage.”

The lawyer’s statement added: “While subject to a coercive exit ban, she was interrogated dozens of times by Iran’s notorious Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) and although never physically detained, she suffered enormous physical and psychological hardship.”

The lawyer said Karari ran a U.S. nonprofit called the Children of Mehr Foundation.

Trump’s announcement came as the U.S. and Iran have continued strikes.

“The United States of America appreciates this gesture of Goodwill by Iran,” Trump added in the post.

CENTCOM announced Thursday night that they completed another wave of strikes against Iranian military targets.

U.S. forces launched a series of “precision munition” strikes from fighter jets, drones and warships for the sixth night in a row, CENTCOM said in an X post.

Iran claims it targeted a U.S. military base in eastern Syria on Friday, which would be the first known attack by Iranian forces on Syrian territory since the U.S. and Israel jointly launched a war against Iran earlier this year.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it carried out a “surprise attack” on a U.S. special operations command center at al-Tanf near Syria’s southeastern borders with Iraq and Jordan in response to the killing of Iranian soldiers in the southeastern Iranian city of Iranshahr, according to Iran’s state broadcaster IRIB. ABC News cannot independently verify the claim.

In February, the U.S. military said it had completed a withdrawal from the so-called al-Tanf Garrison, which “was a key base along a southern highway that was a main smuggling route for Iranian weapons flowing into Syria and particularly Hezbollah in Lebanon.”

The U.S. announced another round of strikes on Iran on Friday for the seventh consecutive night, according to U.S. Central Command.

“The strikes are designed to continue degrading Iranian military capabilities at the Commander in Chief’s direction,” CENTCOM said.

The U.S. also redirected four commercial vessels, disabled one and boarded on in its naval blockade on Iran, CENTCOM said.
