Israel 'ceasefire broken' as Iran accused of launching more missile attacks
Defence Minister Israel Katz said in a statement Iran violated the ceasefire and promised 'intense strikes' against Tehran in response.
Israel has accused Iran of violating the ceasefire in the Middle East after more missile attacks as they vow to respond "forcefully".
Defence Minister Israel Katz said in a statement Iran had violated the ceasefire and has promised"intense strikes" against Tehran in response.
As the Mirror reports, Iran reportedly launched missiles towards Israel, according to the country's military. The Israeli military said it verified missiles were launched from Iran. However Iran is yet to confirm an attack against Israel.
Israel's armed forces say they are working to "intercept the threat" and urging civilians to head for bomb shelters under further notice.
It comes after a ceasefire appeared to have been brokered between Iran, the US and Israel that went into effect at 8am today.
Donald Trump sent a stringent warning to both countries "do not violate" the "total ceasefire" he and Iranian state TV said was in place in the Middle East.
The US President posted on Truth Social this morning: "THE CEASEFIRE IS NOW IN EFFECT. PLEASE DO NOT VIOLATE IT! DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!" The message came after a post last night's on the social media site praised Iran and Israel's great"stamina, courage and intelligence."
President Trump earlier branded the conflict"THE 12 DAY WAR", before sharing news of the breakthrough..
He wrote: 'On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, 'THE 12 DAY WAR'."
'This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn't, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!'

Iraqi officials have denounced "cowardly" drone attacks at several military bases in the country.
While they did not state who had carried out the attack, Iran has previously targeted military sites in the country.
A statement from the country's special forces read in part: "In a treacherous and cowardly attack, from 0215 to 0345 today, Tuesday, corresponding to 24 June 2025, a group of small suicide drones targeted several Iraqi military sites and bases.
"This attack caused significant damage to the radar systems at Taji Camp north of Baghdad and Imam Ali (peace be upon him) Base in Dhi Qar Governorate, with no human casualties reported.
"Iraqi forces successfully countered and thwarted all other attack attempts on four different sites, neutralizing and shooting down the drones that were aimed at targeting these locations."

‘They don't know what the f**k they're doing!' rages Trump as he blasts Iran AND Israel for breaking hour-old ceasefire

Trump's stunning profanity in front of cameras comes after a ceasefire between the two Middle Eastern countries appeared to break down. 4 President Donald Trump speaks to reporters before boarding Marine One 4 Trump said Iran's nuclear program was destroyed Credit: Reuters 4 Iran bombed homes in the Israeli city of Beersheba after the ceasefire had begun Credit: AP 4 An Iranian rocket which landed in Israel The President appeared visibly angry speaking to journalists as he left the White House to Joint Base Andrews this morning. Israel was preparing to strike Tehran after a new wave of ballistic missiles were launched at Israel. The rockets arrived just four hours into a pause in fighting following 12 days of missile salvos and World War 3 brinkmanship. The two ballistic missiles were intercepted around 9am UK time - but it sparked a rapid deterioration towards renewed war. Israel's defence minister Israel Katz said the IDF was set to launch 'intense strikes against regime targets in the heart of Tehran'. But Trump then appeared and blasted both Iran and Israel for violating the ceasefire. He appeared visibly angry at the quick collapse of the agreement and lashed out saying: "We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the f*** they're doing." Trump also sent a stinging message to Israel in a post on social media saying: "Do not drop those bombs. If you do it is a major violation. "Bring your pilots home now." Soon after, Israel appeared to have massively minimised its attack on Iran and only bombed a radar station in a "symbolic strike", local media reported. In a case of mixed messaging, Iran denied twice that they fired the missiles but also claimed that Israel broke the ceasefire first and the missile salvo was in response to that. Trump announced the ceasefire on social media early on Tuesday morning saying: "THE CEASEFIRE IS NOW IN EFFECT. PLEASE DO NOT VIOLATE IT!" Netanyahu declared victory and hailed Operation Rising Lion as a success having gutted the Ayatollah's ballistic missile and nuclear program. He said in a statement: 'The IDF achieved full air control over Tehran's skies, inflicted severe damage on the military leadership, and destroyed dozens of central Iranian government targets." The first part of the deal kicked into effect at 5am UK time and involved Iran first stopping its missile attacks. Israel then had an extra 12 hours to continue attacking Iran, with its strikes having to stop at 5pm UK time and the full ceasefire taking effect. The agreement came after the Ayatollah fired a last second salvo of missiles just before the deadline at 5am UK time. Tragically four civilians were killed in the heartless strike on apartment buildings in the city of Beersheba. Trump made the announcement just hours after Iran dramatically attacked a US military base in Qatar. He wrote on Truth Social: "It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a "Complete and Total CEASEFIRE." Don dubbed the conflict "THE 12 DAY WAR" and said it could have "gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn't, and never will!" The ceasefire came after Trump dismissed the Iranian missile strike targeting the Al Udaid US air base on Monday night as "very weak". All the Iranian missiles were shot down, and no casualties were reported. Stay up to date with the latest on Israel vs Iran with The Sun's live blog below...

Watch: Trump's expletive-laden warning to Israel
US President Donald Trump is taking no prisoners today. Just hours after Trump announced a ceasefire had come into place between Israel and Iran – following the Iranian strikes yesterday evening on Doha – now the President has sent a message to Israel, warning against further strikes in a rather, um, explicit fashion. Taking first to his Truth Social platform, Trump issued a concise memo: ISRAEL. DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS. IF YOU DO IT IS A MAJOR VIOLATION. BRING YOUR PILOTS HOME, NOW! Speaking to reporters before today's Nato summit in The Hague, the US President then went on to fume that he is 'not happy' with Israel. The Israeli military had agreed to Trump's peace proposal, but subsequently announced it had intercepted a missile launched by Iran – Tehran denies starting fresh attacks. 'There was one rocket that I guess was fired overboard after the time limit and now Israel is going out. These guys [have] got to calm down,' he told the press. 'I didn't like the fact that Israel unloaded right after we made the deal. They didn't have to unload.' Trump added: We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing. Don't hold back! In the last few minutes, the President has taken to Truth Social to issue yet another message, after initially climbing that both Iran and Israel violated his ceasefire agreement. Now Trump has written: Israel is not going to attack Iran. All planes will turn around and head home, while doing a friendly 'plane wave' to Iran. Nobody will be hurt, the ceasefire is in effect! Thank you for your attention to this matter! Half an hour is a long time in politics, eh? Watch the clip here:
