United States President Donald Trump, on Monday night, announced a “total ceasefire” between warring Iran and Israel, saying the development will take place in some hours to come.
Posting on his social media platform, Truth Social, he wrote: “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!”
He said this was a war that “could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East”, but it “didn’t, and never will”.
However, both Israel and Iran were yet to confirm or deny the development.
