Iran confirms ceasefire with Israel Iran confirms ceasefire with Israel
(32 minutes later)
Tehran has warned that it will deliver a “decisive response” to any violations of the truce by West Jerusalem
DETAILS TO FOLLOW Iran has agreed to a ceasefire with Israel since Tehran’s military objectives have been achieved, the Iranian Supreme National Security Council has announced.
US President Donald Trump announced earlier that there would be a truce after nearly two weeks of tit-for-tat strikes. Trump claimed that Israel and Iran had approached him “almost simultaneously, and said, ‘PEACE!’, adding that the Middle East and the whole world would be “winners” in a cessation of hostilities.
Iran’s top security body announced “the national decision to impose the cessation of war on the Zionist enemy [Israel] and its vile supporters” in a statement on Tuesday.
The Iranian military “without any trust to the words of the enemy and with their hands on the trigger, are ready to deliver a decisive and deterring response to any violating act by the enemy,” it warned.
Tehran delivered a “humiliating and exemplary response to the enemy’s cruelty,” including a missile attack on the US base in Qatar on Monday and the latest wave of strikes against Israel.
“The courage and sacrifice” of the Iranian military “forced the enemy into regret and accepting defeat and the unilateral cessation of its aggression,” it added.
A few hours before, Israel also officially confirmed agreeing to the ceasefire.
The office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel would “respond forcefully to any violation of the ceasefire.”
The statement thanked Trump and the US military, which hit targets in Iran on Sunday, for “their support in defense and their participation in eliminating the Iranian nuclear threat.”
Netanyahu’s office also said he held a cabinet meeting to report that “Israel has removed a dual immediate existential threat – both in the nuclear and ballistic missile fields” posed by Iran.
