Israel has agreed to a two-week ceasefire with Iran, a decision that follows an announcement by U.S. President Donald Trump.
The ceasefire was declared just before a deadline set by Trump, who had warned Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz or face intensified military action against its civilian infrastructure. A senior White House official confirmed Israel’s participation in the truce.
As part of this agreement, Israel will halt its bombing campaign in the region while negotiations are ongoing. This development marks a significant shift in the dynamics of the ongoing tensions between the nations.
Prior to this ceasefire, President Trump indicated that the U.S. would suspend airstrikes and military operations against Iran for two weeks, contingent upon Iran’s full compliance with reopening the strategic waterway.
Israel's participation in the ceasefire with Iran, announced by Trump, reflects a temporary pause in hostilities as negotiations unfold. This agreement could influence regional tensions significantly.
