While Trump declared the ceasefire, reports suggest that strikes continued into early Tuesday morning. Israel claimed to have identified missiles launched from Iran. Simultaneously, Iranian state media alleged fresh Israeli attacks on Tehran overnight. As of now, Israel has not officially confirmed or commented on the declared ceasefire.
Qatar's Role as Mediator

A senior White House official told CNN that Israel agreed to the ceasefire on the condition that Iran cease its attacks within Israeli territory. Iran reportedly agreed to these terms.
