Live update: Israel-Iran ceasefire remains unclear after Iranian missile barrage strikes Israel
Iranian state television reported Tuesday that a ceasefire had begun in its war with Israel, even as Israel warned the public of a new missile barrage launched from Iran. The launches came after 4 a.m. local time in Tehran, the time Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Iran would stop its attacks if Israel ended their airstrikes. At least four people were killed in the early morning barrages, but there was no immediate word of further attacks. Israel's Magen David Adom rescue services said at least eight more people were injured in the early morning barrage. Trump's announcement that Israel and Iran had agreed to a 'complete and total ceasefire' came soon after Iran launched a limited missile attack Monday on a U.S. military base in Qatar, retaliating for the American bombing of its nuclear sites. Israel so far has not acknowledged the Trump ceasefire announcement.

Neighbors and family members embraced while trying to figure out where to go next. More than 9,000 Israelis have been displaced from their homes since the war with Iran began, according to the Prime Minister's Office. Yehezkiel Cheri said he was in a synagogue for morning prayers Tuesday when the first sirens went off. As he made his way into his apartment building in between waves of missiles, he felt a huge explosion. 'I saw fire in front of me, and I ran into the apartment,' he said. 'I don't think we need to continue this war. It's a shame. These are souls of God, and we need to protect each one, from every country, everyone needs to care for each person,' he said. Update: Date: 2025-06-24 06:08:52 Title: Israeli airspace reopens Content: Israel's Airports Authority said the country's airspace has reopened for emergency flights after closing earlier due to an hourslong barrage of missiles from Iran. Update: Date: 2025-06-24 06:08:07 Title: Death toll rises to 4 in Beersheba Content: Israeli firefighters said they retrieved four bodies from a building hit by an Iranian missile in the city of Beersheba. The direct hit in the largest city in southern Israel comes just days after the city's hospital sustained significant damage in a missile strike. The search and rescue team said they retrieved four bodies from one building in Beersheba and were searching for more.

It wasn't immediately possible to reconcile the messages from Iran and Israel on the 12th day of their war. Iranian state television announced the ceasefire in a graphic on screen, not immediately acknowledging the new missile barrage coming after the deadline set by President Donald Trump in his earlier ceasefire announcement.
