As US President Donald Trump claims a ceasefire has been achieved between Iran and Israel on Monday, Tehran has denied the claim.
Iran has stated it did not receive any ceasefire proposal from the US which calls for a truce. Meanwhile, Israel has stayed silent on the ceasefire claim and is yet to comment on its implementation.
Taking to X, Iranian foreign minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi stated that there is “no agreement as of now.”
“As of now, there is NO “agreement” on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations. However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards. The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later,” he wrote.
While Israeli officials have stated that Israel is on board with the ceasefire, an official reaction from the country is awaited. As per Hebrew media, Israeli officials have stated the prime minister Netanyahu is on board with Trump’s ceasefire plan as long as “Iran vows to stop its missile attacks.”
As per an AP report, the Israeli military declined to comment on Trump’s statement and the office of the Israeli PM is yet to respond.
