US President Donald Trump announced on Monday evening a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran, expressing optimism that the truce would bring an end to the ongoing conflict.

In a post on social media, Trump declared, “It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in-progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED.”
He outlined the ceasefire timeline, stating that Iran would initiate the ceasefire first, followed by Israel 12 hours later, with an official end to the 12-day war by the 24th hour.
Trump praised both countries for their “stamina, courage, and intelligence” in reaching the agreement, calling it a war that could have devastated the Middle East but “didn’t, and never will.”
Trump concluded by blessing Israel, Iran, the Middle East, the United States, and the world, emphasizing the importance of peace.
However, tensions remain as Iran warned residents in the Ramat Gan suburb of Tel Aviv to evacuate, according to the semi-official Mehr News Agency. This warning came shortly after Israel’s military issued an evacuation order for a district in Tehran.
Contradicting Trump’s announcement, a senior Iranian official told CNN that Iran had not received any ceasefire proposal and saw no reason to accept one. The official stated Iran would continue its fight until lasting peace is achieved and accused Israel and the US of deception intended to justify attacks on Iran’s interests.
“At this very moment, the enemy is committing aggression against Iran, and Iran is on the verge of intensifying its retaliatory strikes, with no ear to listen to the lies of its enemies,” the official said.
