Explosions were heard at Camp Taji, a military base near Baghdad, just minutes after US President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. An Iraqi military official said an unidentified drone struck the base, damaging a radar system. No one was hurt. Videos on social media showed the base on fire. Some posts said radar and missile systems were hit. Trump earlier said both Israel and Iran agreed to a “complete and total ceasefire” over the next 12 hours. He called it the end of the “12-day war.” Neither Israel nor Iran has officially confirmed the truce. (PC: AFP)
