White House says Iran war ceasefire will continue if Strait of Hormuz is open

As a fragile ceasefire takes effect, the White House said Iran has given assurances that it is allowing ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, despite reports that Tehran has once again closed it due to Israel’s attacks on Lebanon. Follow for live news updates.

#Israel today has carried out what it called the largest strikes on the country since the start of the #war.

Fars said 2 #oil tankers were allowed to cross the strait since the #ceasefire came into effect.

#Iran is mulling its response to what it sees as Israeli #ceasefire violations against #Lebanon, acc/to an unidentified security source speaking to Fars News Agency, an outlet affiliated with Iran’s #IRGC.

#Iran is in the process of working on its response to carry out deterrent operations against Israeli military positions in the occupied territories,” the source was cited as saying.

The source said the continuation of attacks indicates that either the “#US cannot control” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu or that it “has granted freedom of action to the Zionist regime.”

Another source speaking to the state-affiliated Tasnim news agency said Iran’s armed forces are “identifying targets” to respond to #Israel attacks on #Lebanon on Wednesday, threatening to withdraw from the #ceasefire agreement if they continued.

“If the #US cannot control its watchdog in the region, #Iran will exceptionally assist it in this matter! And that, by force.”

#Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif said earlier that #Lebanon was included in the #ceasefire between #Israel, the #US & #Iran, but the Israeli military said attacks on #Hezbollah in Lebanon would continue.

#Trump today described continued Israeli strikes on Lebanon as a “separate skirmish” with Hezbollah that was “not included” in the 2-week ceasefire deal. [he has no idea what’s in the deal]

“Yeah, they were not included in the deal,” #Trump told PBS News Hour in a phone call this morning. “Because of #Hezbollah. They were not included in the deal. That’ll get taken care of too. It’s alright.”

A senior White House official told CNN Tuesday that #Israel agreed to suspend its bombing campaign as negotiations continue, but Trump appeared to accept that Israel would continue striking #Lebanon in the meantime.

Unlike previous ceasefires, this agreement does not appear to be formal, written document

When #Trump announced a #ceasefire between the #US & #Iran yesterday, he did so by posting to Truth Social, stating that “subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, & SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing & attack of Iran for a period of two weeks.”

Just over an hour later, #Trump reposted a statement written by Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi, which said that “if attacks against #Iran are halted, our Powerful Armed Forces will cease their defensive operations.”

Truces are usually underpinned by documents laying out the terms, though CNN has not seen any version of a #ceasefire text that has been signed by both sides.

#TrumpsWar #IranWar #US #Israel #war #WarCrimes #RulesOfWar #law #geopolitics #NationalSecurity #MiddleEast

Both #Trump & Araghchi have mentioned a 10-point proposal, which Trump described as “a workable basis on which to negotiate.” The White House has not detailed what these 10 points consist of, though Iran’s Supreme National Security Council laid out key parts of the plan.

Iran’s embassy in India posted a breakdown of the 10 points on its X account, which included the “cessation of war on all fronts, including against the heroic Islamic Resistance of #Lebanon.”

#Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif, who presented the #ceasefire plan to #Trump, also said early today that the ceasefire included #Lebanon, though #Israel said that this was not the case.

A short while ago, Trump described continued Israeli strikes on Lebanon as a “separate skirmish” with #Hezbollah that was “not included” in the 2-week ceasefire deal.

When #Trump announced a 2-week #ceasefire with #Iran yesterday, he said the #US had received a 10-point peace proposal that he believed was a “workable basis on which to negotiate.”

But when Iran later released a 10-point proposal to reporters, it was different from the one to which Trump was referring, a White House official told CNN today.

The extent & nature of the differences was not immediately clear. The White House official did not elaborate.

#Trump has repeatedly expressed frustration over what #Iran was saying publicly about the #ceasefire deal. Last night, he derided a statement from Iran’s Supreme National Security Council that claimed victory in the deal as a “FRAUD” & attacked CNN for reporting on it. Today, he suggested on Truth Social that some of the agreements circulating publicly were not being discussed behind closed doors.

#IranWar #US #Israel #war #WarCrimes #RulesOfWar #law #geopolitics #NationalSecurity #MiddleEast

“Numerous Agreements, Lists, & Letters are being sent out by people that have absolutely nothing to do with the U.S.A. / Iran Negotiation, in many cases, they are total Fraudsters, Charlatans, & WORSE … There is only one group of meaningful ‘POINTS’ that are acceptable to the United States, & we will be discussing them behind closed doors during these Negotiations. These are the POINTS that are the basis on which we agreed to a CEASEFIRE…,” #Trump angrily posted.

#IranWar #US #Iran #Israel #war

The #Iran SNSC statement that first drew #Trump’s ire was…from Iranian ofcls & reported on by multiple Iranian state media outlets. It laid out key parts of the Tehran’s 10-pt plan. Those included regulating passage through the #StraitOfHormuz; terminating attacks on #Iran & its regional proxy forces; the withdrawal of #US forces from the region; compensation to Iran; lifting of international #sanctions & unfreezing of assets; & a binding #UN resolution to secure any ultimate peace deal.

Some versions of the security council’s statement that were widely distributed by Iranian state media in both Farsi & in English also included a claim by #Iran of a right to #nuclear enrichment.

@Nonilex King Tyrinus gets cranky when he can’t control the narrative.

@Nonilex

Wow, the Republican president sure doesn't like it when someone else is lying. Or is he lying about the other side lying?

It's really his fault that when I hear two differing accounts, that I assume his account is a lie. #USpol

@Nonilex
So who is ceasing firing on whom?
If the #ceasefire is between #Iran & the US, nothing is to stop Iran continuing to obliterate #Israel, especially if Israelis are all busy over in #Lebanon with their latest genocide project.

@Nonilex The moment he made that post the stock market surged & the price for a barrel of oil dropped by about $50.

I don't support Iran because of their historical tmnt of their citizens, particularly women & gay people, but Trump may have met his match. He's finally come up against a nation's leader who doesn't believe or fall for his bullshit. They know better than to trust anything he says.

Trump aside, a cease fire that includes Israel wasn't even mentioned. I give it less than a week.

@Nonilex

He really was in full panic mode when he wrote that "ceasefire", I think.

Oddly, with most people, if they panic they don't act well, but with Trump it seems the only moment you can catch him at some tiny bit of sanity, is exactly when he IS actually panicking and cutting through his normal six concentric layers of criming and grifting.

@Nonilex

Many people seem to believe, that in order to get something from Trump, you have to butter him up and carry beads and mirrors to him.

And this is true, if you want to be his servant.

But if you want something real from him, something productive, then you must put him against the wall and MAKE.HIM.PANIC.

China uses the rare earths. Iran uses the Hormuz strait. They both understand what you must do.

@Nonilex He dreams this stuff up betwen grunts on his golden throne.

Stupid fucking idiots just can't quit swinging their dicks in.the IDF.

Stick their ass in prison.
Tell Israel they are on their own if Netanyahu does not resign along with his war cabinet
@Nonilex I wonder if that was meant to be “lapdog”

@patmikemid

I was thinking “attack dog”
