War: Iran gives conditions for ceasefire
Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi says Iran is willing to halt its military response against Israel if the latter stops its “illegal aggression.”
This is coming after the US President Donald Trump has claimed that both Iran and Israel have agreed to the ceasefire.
Araghchi, in a post on X, emphasized that Iran initiated no conflict but was responding to Israeli attacks.
He clarified that there was no ceasefire agreement in place.

He wrote: “As Iran has repeatedly made clear: Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around.
“As of now, there is no “agreement” on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations. However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards.
“The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.”
Araghchi’s statement comes amid heightened tensions between Iran and Israel, with recent airstrikes and exchanges of fire escalating the situation.
The Iranian foreign minister has also thanked the country’s armed forces for their readiness to defend the nation.
