Iran halts strikes against Israel, Netanyahu stuck between Trump and ministers
Both sides stopped attacks after 24 hours of missile strikes and counterstrikes, as Washington pressed to preserve cease-fire talks, officials said.
- Following an appeal from President Donald Trump, Iran and Israel halted strikes against each other, agreeing to "immediately stop shooting." Tehran warned it would resume attacks if Israel continues hitting Hezbollah in Lebanon.
- Tehran fired missiles toward Israel on Sunday, prompting Israeli strikes on a petrochemical plant in Mahshahr. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps retaliated with a strike on a similar industrial facility in Haifa, marking the most direct confrontation in 24 hours.
- Trump stated that "Final negotiations on 'Peace' are proceeding," despite the conflict reaching 100 days. The Iranian Foreign Ministry messaged Washington in an atmosphere of "extreme suspicion."
- Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz confirmed that Israel has not halted its campaign in Lebanon, where strikes against Hezbollah continue. Tehran maintains that any enduring truce depends on ending this fighting.
- While major operations are halted, Iranian officials emphasized that "if the aggressions and acts of mischief continue," they will launch "much more severe and crushing actions." The Blockade of the Strait of Hormuz remains in full effect.
