Iran’s Supreme National Security Council announced a ceasefire after Israel’s declaration, stating that Iran forced the enemy to retreat and regret its actions. The statement highlights Iran’s confidence in its response and marks a temporary pause in escalating tensions across the Middle East.
Iran Denies Fresh Missile Strikes as Ceasefire with Israel Takes Effect.
Iran has denied launching any new missile attacks on Israel following the ceasefire announcement. The Iranian Armed Forces’ General Staff told state TV that recent claims of attacks are “completely false.” Earlier, at 3:32 AM, U.S. President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, urging both sides not to break it. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu followed with confirmation, saying their military objectives were achieved. However, two hours later, Israel accused Iran of violating the truce. In response, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant ordered a potential counterstrike, though Iran reports no fresh military action post-ceasefire.

After President Trump’s ceasefire announcement, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi rejected the decision, stating that no final agreement had been reached with Israel. He added that Iran would only stop attacks if Israel halted its aggression. Shortly after his statement, six ballistic missiles were reportedly launched at Israel. According to The Times of Israel, one missile struck a building in Beersheba, killing five and injuring over 20. The sudden escalation has raised fears that the ceasefire may collapse before fully taking effect, further threatening stability in the already tense Middle East region.
