After Iran attacked a U.S. military base in Qatar with missiles on Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that Israel and Iran had agreed to a "complete ceasefire." Iran's attack was a response to the U.S. bombing its nuclear sites. However, the ceasefire was still uncertain because Iran launched more missiles at Israel, even after the first deadline for the agreement.
Early in the morning, Iranian attacks forced Israelis to go into bomb shelters. These attacks killed at least four people and injured eight others, according to Israel's Magen David Adom rescue services. Israel has not yet accepted Trump's suggestion, which might give them more time to respond. However, Iranian state television announced that a ceasefire began at 7:30 a.m. local time.
In Beersheba, emergency workers said they found four bodies in one building and were looking for more. The streets near where the bomb hit were covered with broken glass and trash. Windows were blown out of buildings, and worried neighbors stood outside their damaged homes. Three people were also saved from nearby buildings.
The biggest city in southern Israel was directly hit. This happened only a few days after its main hospital was badly damaged by a missile.

Trump announced that Israel and Iran had agreed to a "complete ceasefire." This announcement came after Iran attacked a U.S. military base in Qatar with missiles. Iran attacked because the U.S. had bombed 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 started 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, and there were no reports of Israeli attacks in Iran after 4 a.m. Tehran time. However, before that, Iranian cities were hit by strong Israeli attacks. In past conflicts, Israel has sometimes 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 or to stop military actions. He explained that if Israel stops its illegal attacks on Iranian people by 4 AM Tehran time, Iran does not intend to continue its response.
His message was posted at 4:16 a.m. Tehran time. Araghchi also said that the final decision about ending their military actions would be made later.
The Israeli military did not comment on Trump's ceasefire announcement, and Benjamin Netanyahu's office has not yet responded 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 Human Rights Activists, a group based in Washington.
The group, which has given detailed numbers of people killed in Iranian protests, like those after Mahsa Amini's death in 2022, stated that among the dead, 387 were civilians and 268 were security personnel.
A State Department official announced that the U.S. has helped about 250 American citizens and their close family members leave Israel. These people were evacuated by government, military, and private planes, starting this past weekend. It is thought that around 700,000 American citizens are currently in Israel, and most of them are also Israeli citizens.
