Tehran/Tel Aviv: In a surprise social media announcement, US President Donald Trump declared that Israel and Iran have reached an agreement to implement a "Complete and Total Ceasefire," marking the end of what he called "The 12 Day War."

Trump stated that the ceasefire would begin in approximately six hours, allowing both sides to conclude their ongoing operations. According to his announcement, Iran will initiate the ceasefire, followed by Israel 12 hours later. A full 24 hours after the first cessation of hostilities, the war will be officially declared over.

“CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE... at which point the War will be considered, ENDED!” Trump wrote.

He emphasised that each side would remain “peaceful and respectful” during the respective ceasefire periods. Praising the "stamina, courage, and intelligence" of both nations, Trump asserted that the war, which he said could have escalated into a years-long regional disaster, had been averted.

Concluding his statement, Trump offered blessings to Israel, Iran, the Middle East, the United States, and “THE WORLD.”

There has been no immediate confirmation of the ceasefire agreement from Israeli or Iranian officials.

Guwahati (PTI): Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Friday said the Centre and his government have undertaken several initiatives for development of the Barak Valley, and launch of the Vibrant Village Programme-II from Cachar is testament of the region's importance in the national landscape.

A region which was “once neglected”, now stands as an important area in Assam's development perspective and in the national Act East vision, Sarma said in a post on X.

''Today, as Adarniya @AmitShah ji is set to launch the nationwide Vibrant Village Programme-II from Cachar, it shows the region's importance in the national landscape,'' he said.

''We have placed great thrust in developing the region, and a host of initiatives are being implemented in this regard including reducing the distance between Guwahati and Silchar to just 5 hours via the upcoming Expressway. Our Double Engine Govt stands committed to do more and ensure the equitable development of both Barak and Brahmaputra valleys,'' Sarma said.

The Barak Valley comprises the districts of Cachar, Hailakandi and Sribhumi.
