“CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED! Officially, Iran will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World. During each CEASEFIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL. On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, “THE 12 DAY WAR.” This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!” – President Donald J. Trump
Iran has reportedly rejected Trump’s claim, and at the time of reporting, the sound of large explosions is being heard across the country.
A senior Iranian official told CNN that Iran will continue fighting until a lasting peace is achieved, describing the statements by Israel and the U.S. as “deceptive tactics” to justify attacks on Iranian interests.
The official said: “At this very moment, the enemy is committing acts of aggression against Iran, and Iran is on the verge of escalating its retaliatory strikes. It has no ear to listen to the lies of its enemies.”
