Donald Trump has announced that Iran and Israel have agreed to a ceasefire, two weeks after they started exchanging missile strikes and two days after he bombed the Islamic Republic’s nuclear labs.
The president said the ’12 day war’ will ‘end’ in 24 hours, despite both nations warning of future strikes and just hours after Tehran attacked America’s largest military base in the Middle East.
He announced the ceasefire deal in a Truth Social post, claiming it is set to go into effect into six hours.
