️ US President Donald Trump has announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran, based on a ten-point proposal submitted by the Iranian government. Trump stated that this decision followed conversations with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and is subject to the complete, immediate, and safe opening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway in the Persian Gulf.

️ The announcement came less than two hours before a deadline Trump had set, after which he allegedly threatened massive strikes that would have resulted in the "death of a whole civilization." Trump claimed that Iran's proposal is "a workable basis on which to negotiate" and that agreement has already been reached on "almost all of the various points of past contention," though he did not elaborate further.

️ Concurrently, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported that Iran launched missiles toward Israeli territory, with defensive systems operating to intercept the threat. These events occurred just moments after Trump's ceasefire announcement, highlighting the ongoing volatility in the region and raising questions about the efficacy of the US regime's policies.

️ Trump's move underscores the challenges faced by the US regime in managing regional conflicts and its inconsistency in following through on threats. The condition to open the Strait of Hormuz appears aimed at exerting economic pressure on Iran, reflecting broader instability in the global policies of the US and its aligned regimes.
