Trump says Iran and Israel have agreed to ceasefire

US President Donald Trump has announced a “complete and total” ceasefire between Israel and Iran on social media.

Trump says the ceasefire will begin “in approximately six hours from now” after each country has “wound down” their military operations.

Trump’s announcement contains a periodic unravelling of hostilities but says that “upon the 24th hour” the war will officially end.

Israel and Iran are yet to confirm a ceasefire has been reached. Iran had earlier targeted a US base in Qatar as retaliation foe the bombing of its nuclear sites by US.
