Overview

  • President Trump announced a phased ceasefire on June 24, but both countries resumed missile fire within hours of his declaration.
  • Israel’s defense minister ordered the IDF to respond forcefully to reported Iranian missile launches after the ceasefire took effect.
  • Iran’s military denied post-ceasefire strikes on Israel yet confirmed that operations continued until 4 a.m. Tehran time and issued new warnings.
  • At least four civilians were killed in Be’er Sheva by Iranian missiles, and Iran’s health ministry has reported hundreds of deaths from Israeli and US airstrikes.
  • Despite direct calls between Trump, Netanyahu, and Qatari intermediaries, diplomatic efforts collapsed under renewed accusations of truce violations.
