Israeli – Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu says his country has agreed to US President Donald Trump’s proposal for a ceasefire with Iran after it achieved its goal of removing Tehran’s nuclear and ballistic missile threat.
The Prime Minister’s office said this in a statement on Tuesday.
“Israel thanks President Trump and the United States for their support in defense and their participation in eliminating the Iranian nuclear threat.
“In light of the achievement of the operation’s goals, and in full coordination with President Trump, Israel agreed to the President’s proposal for a mutual ceasefire,” the statement said.
Trump on Tuesday said a ceasefire between Israel and Iran was now in place and asked both countries not to violate it, only hours after Iran launched waves of missiles, which Israel’s ambulance service said killed at least four people.
Netanyahu, who will deliver a statement later on Tuesday, also said Israel would respond forcefully to any violation of the ceasefire.
Joined by the United States on the weekend, Israel has carried out attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities, after accusing Tehran of getting close to obtaining a nuclear weapon.
Meanwhile, Iran denied ever having a nuclear weapon programme.
