After Iran launched a missile attack on a U.S. military base in Qatar, reportedly in response to American airstrikes on its nuclear facilities, President Trump announced a "complete and total ceasefire" between Israel and Iran. However, the ceasefire's status became uncertain when Iran launched another missile attack on Israel, occurring after the initial deadline for the agreement.
When the sun rose, Iranian attacks forced Israelis into bomb shelters, leading to at least four deaths and eight injuries, as reported by Israel's Magen David Adom rescue services. Although Iran's state television announced a ceasefire had started at 7:30 a.m. local time, Israel has not yet responded to Trump's proposal, which might give them more time to strike back.
In Beersheba, emergency workers stated they found four bodies in one building and were still looking for more. The roads near where the explosion happened were covered with broken glass and rubble, and windows were blown out of buildings, while worried residents stood outside their damaged homes. Additionally, three people were saved from nearby buildings.
The largest city in southern Israel was directly hit only a few days after its main hospital was significantly damaged by a missile strike.
After Iran launched a limited missile attack on a U.S. military base in Qatar, in response to the American bombing of its nuclear sites, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that Israel and Iran had agreed to a "complete and total ceasefire." Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that Iran would stop its attacks if Israel ceased its own by 4 a.m. Tehran time on Tuesday. However, the Israeli military informed its public on Tuesday that Iran had fired missiles towards it about an hour after that time.
Following Iran's missile attack on a U.S. military base in Qatar, which was a response to American airstrikes on its nuclear facilities, President Trump declared a "complete and total ceasefire" between Israel and Iran. Nevertheless, the ceasefire's stability became uncertain after another Iranian missile strike hit Israel. Subsequently, Israeli emergency services confirmed that there were casualties in Beersheba.
Trump announced a "complete and total ceasefire" between Israel and Iran. This announcement came shortly after Iran launched a limited missile attack on a U.S. military base in Qatar, which was reportedly in retaliation for American airstrikes on its nuclear facilities. However, Israel has not confirmed Trump's ceasefire announcement.
Trump announced on Truth Social that the ceasefire, which was set to start around midnight Washington time, would mark the "Official END" of the war.
An hour after the ceasefire began, which required Iran to stop its attacks, Trump posted online: "THE CEASEFIRE IS NOW IN EFFECT. PLEASE DO NOT VIOLATE IT! DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!"
Although Israel did not immediately confirm a ceasefire, there were no reports of Israeli strikes in Iran after 4 a.m. Tehran time. Before this, Israel had carried out heavy strikes in Iranian cities, a tactic it has used in past conflicts just before ceasefires began.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced on X that there is currently no agreement for a ceasefire or to stop military operations. However, he stated that if the Israeli government stops its illegal attacks on the Iranian people by 4 am Tehran time, Iran will not continue its response.
The message was posted at 4:16 a.m. Tehran time, and Araghchi stated that the final decision on stopping military operations would be made later.
The Israeli military has not commented on Trump's ceasefire statement, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office has not yet replied to requests for comments.
The conflict has caused many casualties, with at least 24 people killed and over 1,000 injured in Israel. Also, Israeli attacks in Iran have resulted in at least 974 deaths and 3,458 injuries, according to the Washington-based group Human Rights Activists.
The group, which has provided precise numbers of casualties from Iranian unrest, including the protests following Mahsa Amini's death in 2022, stated that among those killed, 387 were civilians and 268 were security force members.
The U.S. government has helped about 250 American citizens and their close family members leave Israel since the weekend, using government, military, and private planes. A State Department official stated that around 700,000 American citizens, many of whom are also Israeli citizens, are thought to be living in Israel.
