Iran-Israel Ceasefire News Live Updates: ‘It Was My Great Honour To Destroy All Iranian Nuclear Facilities’, Says Trump

Israel-Iran Conflict News Live Updates: Amid rising tensions in West Asia, Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian has asserted Iran’s commitment to the ongoing ceasefire, saying that the country will not violate it unless Israel does so first, according to media reports. However, despite a ceasefire announcement by US President Donald Trump, explosions were reported in Tehran on Tuesday.

After the US destroyed Iranian nuclear sites on June 22, Iran responded strongly launching airstrikes targeting America’s Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar on Monday night (around 10 pm IST), triggering closures of air spaces in several gulf countries. Explosions were heard over Doha after Iran reportedly launched six missiles to target the US military base in the region. Iran’s state media has said the ceasefire has been “imposed” on Israel following the “successful” attack by Tehran’s forces in Qatar.

Tensions flared up in West Asia after Israel launched attacks on Iran on June 13, triggering destruction and casualties in both nations. The conflict was further compounded by the United States’ strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities– Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan. Reacting to the US’s ‘Midnight Hammer’ operation against it, Iran said it will remain firm in developing its nuclear sector.
