🛑 New Strikes Despite Trump’s Halt Call

  • Israel launches new strikes on Iran
    Just minutes after former President Trump announced on Truth Social that Israel had agreed to halt & “turn planes around,” the Israeli military carried out airstrikes targeting a radar site near Tehran—and Iranian media confirmed two explosions in the capital.
  • Trump’s warning went unheeded
    Trump had explicitly demanded: “Israel. Do not drop those bombs. … Bring your pilots home, now!”
    But Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz proceeded, stating the strikes were in response to what he called a “blatant violation” by Iran—even though Iran denies launching any missiles after the ceasefire.

⚔️ Broader Ceasefire Collapse

  • Mutual violations
    Both Israel and Iran have accused each other of violating the ceasefire. Israel insists Iran launched missiles toward northern Israel, triggering sirens and interception systems, while Iran denies any post-ceasefire attacks.
  • Escalation continues
    Israel’s Katz announced “intense strikes” on Tehran in retaliation. Iran, meanwhile, threatens retaliation and has suggested it would stop only if Israel ceases first.

🌍 Implications

  1. Ceasefire effectively broken
    Despite initial declarations, both sides have resumed hostilities within hours.
  2. Region on edge
    The volatility is causing alarms across global markets and within regional governments—diplomatic efforts may be next in line, but military actions remain dominant.
  3. Trump caught in the middle
    Although he oversaw the ceasefire announcement, his calling off didn’t hold—prompting criticism that his leverage with Israeli leadership may be limited

✅ Bottom Line

  • Israel defied Trump’s ceasefire directive with fresh airstrikes.
  • Iran’s involvement is disputed, but both sides are actively trading accusations.
  • The fragile “truce” has unraveled — and the risk of wider escalation is significant.
