Around 11 p.m. ET, the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) said it had identified missiles fired from Iran toward Israel. Warning sirens were heard in several parts of the country, Israel said. Iran has not yet commented on the Israeli statement.

Trump announced the ceasefire

Earlier, Trump said that Israel and Iran had reached an agreement for a "complete and total" ceasefire. According to the US president, the suspension of attacks would begin in Iran at around 1 am (Brasília time). After this period, Israel is expected to follow the truce. "During each CEASE-FIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL," the president added, stressing that the end of the conflict would occur within 24 hours.

The Republican called the conflict the "12-Day War" and said the end of the attacks would be welcomed by the world . "Assuming that everything works out as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both countries, Israel and Iran, for having the resilience, courage and intelligence to end what should be called the 12-Day War," he wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

Israel has not yet taken a position on the alleged ceasefire.
