US President Donald Trump declared that Israel and Iran have reached a ‘complete and total ceasefire’ agreement, effectively ending what he called the “12-Day War.”
“Congratulations to everyone! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a complete and total ceasefire,” Trump said in a statement posted on social media.
According to Trump, the ceasefire will begin in approximately six hours, after both countries complete their “final missions.” Iran will initiate the ceasefire, and Israel will follow 12 hours later. The war will be officially considered over after 24 hours.
Trump praised Israel and Iran for their “stamina, courage, and intelligence” in ending the conflict. He said, “This is a war that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will!”
“God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!” he added.
