Iran: Will Halt Attacks If Israel Stops 'Illegal Aggression'

Source: Al Jazeera June 24, 2025

Confusion surrounds the US-brokered ceasefire as Iran's foreign minister signalled an end to strikes at 4am, yet reports emerged of fresh missile launches toward Israel. While no Israeli strikes on Iran were reported after the deadline, Tehran insists retaliation will continue unless Israel halts attacks.

The situation remains fragile, with a lull in explosions but unconfirmed missile activity. Public pressure mounts in Iran for further retaliation after nuclear and residential sites were hit, while the IRGC has yet to confirm new strikes. Iran's attack on a US base in Qatar underscores the risk of wider escalation.

With both sides avoiding formal ceasefire acknowledgement, the truce appears increasingly unstable.
