After Iran attacked a U.S. base in Qatar with missiles, President Trump announced a "complete ceasefire" between Israel and Iran. This was possibly a reaction to the U.S. bombing Iran's nuclear sites. However, the ceasefire was not certain because more Iranian missiles hit Israel after the first deadline for the agreement.
As the sun rose, Iranian attacks forced Israelis to quickly go into bomb shelters. Israel's Magen David Adom rescue services reported that at least four people died and eight were injured. Israel has not yet accepted Trump's suggestion, which might give them more time to respond. However, Iran's state television announced that a general ceasefire began at 7:30 a.m. local time.
In Beersheba, rescue workers said they found four bodies in one building and were still looking for more. The streets around where it happened were covered in glass and broken pieces, and windows were broken in nearby buildings. Worried people stood outside their damaged homes. Three people were rescued from buildings close by.
The largest city in southern Israel was directly hit. This happened just a few days after a missile strike badly damaged its hospital.
After Iran attacked a U.S. military base in Qatar with missiles, President Trump announced that Israel and Iran had agreed to a full ceasefire. Iran's attack was a response to the U.S. bombing its nuclear sites. Iran's Foreign Minister said that if Israel stopped its attacks by 4 a.m. Tehran time on Tuesday, Iran would also stop. However, the Israeli military later warned that Iran had fired more missiles at Israel shortly after that time.
After Iran attacked a U.S. military base in Qatar with missiles to get back at the U.S. for bombing its nuclear sites, U.S. President Trump announced a "complete ceasefire" between Israel and Iran. However, this ceasefire was uncertain because more Iranian missiles hit Israel, and Israeli firefighters found four bodies in a building in Beersheba.
Trump announced that Israel and Iran had agreed to a "complete and total ceasefire." This announcement came shortly after Iran launched a missile attack on a U.S. military base in Qatar. Iran stated this attack was in response to America bombing its nuclear sites. However, Israel has not confirmed Trump's ceasefire announcement.
Trump announced on Truth Social that the war would officially end when the ceasefire began around midnight in Washington.
More than an hour after the temporary ceasefire began, which asked Iran to stop its attacks, Trump announced: "THE CEASEFIRE IS NOW IN EFFECT. PLEASE DO NOT VIOLATE IT! DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!"
Israel didn't immediately confirm a ceasefire, but there were no reports of Israeli attacks in Iran after 4 a.m. in Tehran. Before that, Israel had carried out many strong attacks in Iranian cities. In past conflicts, Israel has often increased its attacks just before a ceasefire began.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced on X that there is no agreement yet for a ceasefire. However, he added that if Israel stops its illegal attacks on Iranians by 4 am Tehran time, Iran will not continue its response.
His message was shared at 4:16 a.m. Tehran time. Araghchi also said that the decision about stopping their military actions would be made later.
The Israeli military did not comment on Trump's ceasefire statement, and Benjamin Netanyahu's office has not yet replied to requests for information.
In Israel, at least 24 people have died and over 1,000 have been hurt in the war. Israeli attacks on Iran have killed at least 974 people and injured 3,458 others, according to the group Human Rights Activists, which is based in Washington.
The group, which has provided specific numbers of people killed in Iranian protests, like those after Mahsa Amini's death in 2022, reported that 387 of the dead were civilians and 268 were security personnel.
The U.S. has helped about 250 American citizens and their close family members leave Israel. They used government, military, and special planes, starting this past weekend. It is thought that around 700,000 American citizens are still in Israel, and most of them also have Israeli citizenship.
