Hey there, from CNN. I'm David Rind with the five things you need to know for Monday,

April 6th. President Donald Trump will give an update this afternoon on the daring weekend

mission to rescue an American Air Force colonel from behind enemy lines in Iran.

He surely will be asked about his apparent Tuesday night deadline for Iran to open the

straight of Hormuz.

Trump's profane social media post yesterday said the U.S. would bomb electrical power plants if

Iran doesn't comply. Experts say that could be a war crime. This morning, we're also starting to hear

the word ceasefire a little bit more. CNN's Kevin Liptack is here. Kevin is a ceasefire possibility?

Like, how real is any of this?

David, the efforts do seem like a long shot right now. The countries that have been working to

end the war in Iran have drafted this proposal calling for a 45-day ceasefire and the reopening

of the Strait of Hormuz. It's really viewed as a last-ditch effort to stave off the massive strikes on Iranian

power plants and other infrastructure that Trump says are coming if the straight remains blocked.

A White House official said the president had not signed off on the proposal. They say it's one of

many ideas. The hope here is that the 45-day ceasefire window would allow for negotiations to permanently

end the conflict.

But already Iran seemed to reject any temporary ceasefire saying it would allow its adversaries

to pause and prepare for the continuation of the war.

The Iranian embassy in India responded to Trump on X, posting, quote, swearing and throwing

insults or how sore loser brats behave. Get a grip on X, posting quote, swearing and throwing insults

or how sore loser brats behave.

Get a grip on yourself, old man.
