After 12 tension-filled days of conflict, a ceasefire between Iran and Israel has been declared. Facilitated by Qatar on the proposition of the United States, both nations have agreed to halt their aggressive encounters. While Iran's media acknowledges the beginning of this ceasefire, its tone remains somewhat skeptical, perceiving it as an imposition rather than a mutual agreement. Iranian media and political figures have asserted that until the eleventh hour, Iranian forces were actively engaging Israel.
Early Tuesday, Trump took to his social media platform 'Truth' to broadcast that both nation-states had reached an agreement on a ceasefire. In response, Iran firmly denied such claims. Mahdi Mohammadi, Iran's parliamentary spokesperson, wrote on 'X,' accusing America and Trump of deceitful intentions aimed at undermining Iran's security for further escalation.
Initially, no affirmative counter-response came from Iran regarding the truce, but later, Iranian media acknowledged the initiation.
Subsequently, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi posted on the social media platform 'X' that the valiant Iranian military's operations against Israeli incursions endured until the early hours, demonstrating a relentless defense for their beloved homeland. He expressed gratitude to the brave forces who stand ready to defend the nation to their last breath, commending their spirit against any adversarial threats.
Iran Fired Missiles at Israel Prior to Ceasefire
In the Iranian media, the ceasefire is celebrated almost as a victory, citing continued bombardment of Israel up to the ceasefire's brink, reinforcing Iran's military prowess to both Israel and the United States. According to a Mehrnews report, Iran launched a five-phase missile offensive against Israel just an hour before the truce began.
Another report claimed that President Donald Trump was almost in a pleading stance to ensure neither Iran nor Israel violated the ceasefire.
The Valor and Courage of Iran Shattered Trump's Arrogance
Reports in the prominent Iranian newspaper, 'Tehran Times,' suggested that Iranian valor and bravery dented Trump's ego profoundly.
The paper reported that Trump had expressed intentions of targeting Iranian nuclear facilities but his bluster lasted only a day. Iran, undeterred by Trump's declarations, stood resolute, proving them empty. Throughout media outlets, the United States' state-of-the-art B-2 bombers were projected, but they did not intimidate the Iranian populace. Victory in conflict, they argued, belongs not to modern weaponry but to unyielding willpower.
The periodical further elaborated on Iran's legacy filled with courage, valor, and pride, which theoretically remained unknown to Trump and his advisory team.
In a jest regarding Afghanistan, the periodical mocked Trump's decision to drop the 'Mother of All Bombs' in the region, ultimately leading to a humiliating retreat under Taliban-set conditions. They highlighted Trump's failure to comprehend the Iranian willingness for supreme sacrifice for their nation, a sentiment shared even by critics of the Iranian regime languishing in detention, unified against the externally imposed conflict.
Iranians Celebrate on Social Media
Following the ceasefire, Iranians took to social media, sharing videos celebrating the truce. Many citizens voiced criticisms against Netanyahu, sharing footage of destruction inflicted by the Israeli assault on mosques and buildings.
