Overview

  • The truce came into force on June 24 at 7:30 a.m. local time following President Trump’s staged 24-hour ceasefire plan.
  • Iran’s last barrage of missiles struck Beersheba just before the pause, killing at least four people and wounding others.
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel had achieved its military objectives and would enforce the ceasefire decisively against any violations.
  • Qatar’s emir played a pivotal role in brokering the agreement during backchannel talks between Trump, Netanyahu and Iranian representatives.
  • The United States evacuated hundreds of American citizens from Israel and warned it would take forceful action if the ceasefire is breached.
