US President Donald Trump declared on Tuesday that a ceasefire between Israel and Iran was now in place, ending the 12-day war.
In a message published on his social media Truth, he urged both countries not to violate it.
The announcement came after Iran launched waves of missiles at Israel, which it described as its latest round, killing four people in the southern town of Beersheba.
It is not known how many people were killed or injured in Iran overnight.
When Trump announced the ceasefire, he seemed to suggest that both countries would have time to complete the missions that were underway before the phased process began.
“Assuming everything works out as planned, which it will,” Mr. Trump wrote, “I would like to congratulate both countries for having the stamina, courage and intelligence to end what should be called THE 12 DAY WAR.
While the mutual strikes continued into the early hours of the morning, both Iran and Israel have now agreed to the ceasefire.
