Iran has denied agreeing to a ceasefire with Israel, shortly after US President Donald Trump announced a truce. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said, “As of now, there is NO agreement on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations.” He added Iran may stop its attacks if Israel ends airstrikes by 4 am Tehran time. “We have no intention to continue our response afterwards,” he said. Trump claimed a 24-hour phased ceasefire would begin at midnight Eastern Time. The statement came after Iran launched missiles at a US base in Qatar. Qatar condemned the strike and said most missiles were intercepted. (PC: AP)
