US President Donald Trump announced that there was a total ceasefire between Israel and Iran, something that Iran has denied. 

In a statement, Trump said: “Congratulations to everyone! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a complete and total ceasefire. 

Trump described the attacks as ‘The 12 Day War.’

During the 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 and courage 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.” 

Minister of Foreign Affairs in Iran, Seyed Araghchi denied the claims. 

“As Iran has repeatedly made clear, Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around.

“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. 

He said the final decision on the cessation of their military operations would be made later.
