Trump declares immediate ceasefire between Iran and Israel, confirmation pending
US President Donald Trump announced an immediate ceasefire between Iran and Israel in a social media post, declaring an end to what he called “The 12 day war”. Officials from both nations have yet to confirm the arrangement, Kazinform News Agency correspondent reports.
Trump concluded by praising the prevention of a prolonged conflict and offering blessings to all nations involved.
Official sources from both sides have yet to confirm Trump’s statement. However, Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi stated in a social media post, “As of now, there is NO ‘agreement’ on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations.”
He added that if Israeli military actions cease by 4 a.m. Tehran time, Iran does not intend to continue its response and “the final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.”
Earlier this night, Iran reported the launch of a missile operation targeting US bases in Qatar and Iraq.
This is a developing story.
