Trump Declares Ceasefire Agreement Between Israel and Iran

President Trump revealed on Monday that a complete ceasefire has been brokered between Israel and Iran, supposedly putting a halt to over a week of hostilities.

The cessation of hostilities is set to commence in roughly six hours, with a claim that the cessation will officially mark the end of the conflict after a 12-hour period, as clarified by Mr. Trump.

"Iran will officially initiate the ceasefire and, after twelve hours, Israel will follow suit," the president explained. "The global community is anticipated to acknowledge the conclusion of what has been a 12-day confrontation," he added.

As of now, there hasn't been any verification from either Israel or Iran confirming this ceasefire.

Details of the Conflict

The recent altercation reportedly started on June 13 when Israel launched attacks targeting various Iranian military infrastructures. In retaliation, Iran conducted counterstrikes on Israel.

Over the past weekend, the U.S. executed strikes aimed at Iranian sites pivotal to their nuclear capability. This development heightened the prospect of a broader conflict, but Iran's subsequent military actions were rather restrained. They launched multiple missiles, most of which were neutralized without causing injuries.
