Trump Says Israel-Iran Ceasefire Is In Effect After Deal Initially Faltered
8 hours ago
U.S. President Donald Trump says a ceasefire between Iran and Israel is in effect after the deal initially faltered and the American leader expressed deep frustration with both sides. Israel had earlier accused Iran of launching missiles into its airspace after the truce was supposed to take effect and the Israeli finance minister vowed “Tehran will tremble.” State media reported that Iran’s military denied firing on Israel. But explosions boomed and sirens sounded across northern Israel midmorning, and an Israeli military official said two Iranian missiles were intercepted.
