Hours after President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that Israel and Iran have agreed to a “Complete and Total CEASEFIRE” that will be phased in over 24 hours, the two nations confirmed the same.
However, Israel says it detected missile launches from Iran even after its foreign minister said they are halting attacks. Earlier, four Israelis died in an Iranian missile strike.
Iran had also fired missiles at a US base in Qatar on Monday as a response to the US attacking its nuclear sites, but it also showed that the country was willing to de-escalate the situation by providing the US with advance notice of the strike. The drones were intercepted near Baghdad, and no casualties were reported.
