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.
Waves of missiles sent Israelis to bomb shelters for almost two hours in the morning.
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.
Here is the latest:
Death toll rises to 4 in Beersheba
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.
Israel closes its airspace
The Israel Airports Authority said the barrages from Iran forced them to close the skies to all passenger planes, including emergency flights that were expected to land and depart on Tuesday.
Some flights were forced to circle over the Mediterranean Sea, according to Israeli media.
Israel’s airports have been closed since the war with Iran began, but a handful of emergency flights had started arriving and departing over the past few days.
Israeli firefighters rescue children trapped in rubble
Israeli firefighters said they rescued at least three people, including children trapped in the rubble of an apartment building after an Iranian missile barrage struck southern Israel.
In Beersheba, first responders cordoned off blocks as they tried to assess how many people had been killed and injured.
The streets around the impact site were littered with glass and debris, windows were blown out of buildings as anxious neighbors stood outside their damaged houses.
Iran state television announces ceasefire has begun
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.
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.
Israel warned of another wave of incoming missiles 20 minutes after the ceasefire was supposed to come into effect.
At least 3 killed and 8 injured in latest Iranian barrage, Israel says
Israel’s Magen David Adom rescue services said at least three people were killed and eight injured in the early morning barrage. A residential building in Israel’s south sustained heavy damage, emergency responders said.
Waves of missiles sent Israelis across the country to bomb shelters for almost two hours Tuesday morning.
