US President Donald Trump announced that Iran and Israel have agreed to a "complete ceasefire" beginning at approximately 4:00 a.m. GMT on Tuesday, marking the "official end" of a 12-day war between the two countries.
Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social, that "a complete and comprehensive ceasefire has been fully agreed upon between Israel and Iran."
He added that the Islamic Republic will observe the ceasefire "approximately six hours from now," followed by Israel 12 hours after that.
The US president emphasized that during the ceasefire, which both sides will observe, "the other side will remain peaceful and respectful."
He added, "Assuming everything goes as it should, which it will, I want to congratulate both countries, Israel and Iran, for having the stamina, courage, and intelligence to bring what should be called the '12-Day War.'"
He continued, "This is a war that could have lasted for years and devastated the entire Middle East. It didn't, and it never will!"
The Republican president concluded his post by saying, "God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States, and God bless the world!"
