President Donald Trump lashed out Tuesday morning in front of reporters, delivering a blistering rebuke to both Iran and Israel after overnight reports confirmed both nations violated the ceasefire agreement he announced just a day prior.
Earlier Developments
On Monday, Trump declared that a U.S.-brokered ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran was “in effect,” following days of escalating missile exchanges and threats involving nuclear sites and airspace violations.
However, just hours after his announcement, conflicting messages emerged from both Iranian state media and Israeli military spokespeople. Iranian officials accused Israel of continuing reconnaissance over its airspace, while Israel claimed Iranian-backed proxies launched rockets near its northern border, violating the ceasefire terms.
In a series of erratic and urgent Truth Social posts, Trump attempted to control the situation directly:
- “ISRAEL. DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS. IF YOU DO IT IS A MAJOR VIOLATION. BRING YOUR PILOTS HOME, NOW!”
- “ISRAEL is not going to attack Iran. All planes will turn around and head home, while doing a friendly ‘Plane Wave’ to Iran… Ceasefire is in effect!”
- “IRAN WILL NEVER REBUILD THEIR NUCLEAR FACILITIES!”
The ceasefire was seen as a personal diplomatic victory for Trump, who has repeatedly claimed he alone could bring peace to the Middle East. But the latest crossfire and bombings overnight cast serious doubt on the stability of the agreement.
Military Activity Escalates
Reports from regional defense monitors indicate that Israel conducted airstrikes on suspected Iranian military positions in Syria late Monday night, while Iran reportedly fired several drones into Israeli airspace near the Golan Heights early Tuesday morning. Neither government officially confirmed the incidents, but local witnesses and defense radar logs suggest ceasefire violations occurred on both sides.
The situation remains fluid, and international observers from NATO and the United Nations have not yet issued formal statements.
