Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters said its operations against Israel had ended after a 'painful response' to Israeli attacks on Lebanon, and warned of harsher attacks if Israel resumed strikes there; it came less than two hours after Trump posted that Israel and Iran 'must immediately stop shooting'. Israel halted its strikes on Iran at Trump's request, Channel 12 reported, and Netanyahu said Israel would respond forcefully to any new attack.
Why it matters
An Israeli official said strikes in south Lebanon would continue 'in full force', leaving Lebanon as the trigger Iran had named for renewed fighting.
