After 12 days of relentless missile exchanges and deadly airstrikes between Iran and Israel, a ceasefire has finally been enforced—a major development bringing relief to a world gripped by fear of nuclear escalation. The conflict began on June 13 when Israel, vowing to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, launched a direct strike. In response, Iran initiated immediate counterattacks, leading to widespread devastation across Tel Aviv and Tehran. As visuals of destruction dominated global media, tensions soared. The US entered the conflict by striking Iranian nuclear sites, which triggered further retaliatory missile attacks by Iran on American bases in the Middle East.However, in the early hours of the morning, US President Donald Trump announced via social media that both countries had agreed to a ceasefire. While initially hailed as a peace breakthrough, reports from Israeli sources claim Iranian missile attacks have not entirely ceased, with sirens still wailing in parts of Israel. According to American media, the ceasefire was brokered through backchannel diplomacy involving Qatar and the US, with plans to restart nuclear negotiations with Iran from a new framework. Despite the ceasefire, tensions remain fragile, and the world watches closely as diplomacy cautiously replaces warfare.
