Iran denies ceasefire agreement with Israel, warns response will stop only if attacks cease
Tehran: Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Tuesday dismissed reports of a ceasefire agreement with Israel, stating that no such deal currently exists between the two countries.
In a statement posted on social media, Araghchi said, “As of now, there is NO 'agreement' on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations,” directly contradicting an earlier announcement by the US President, who had claimed that a ceasefire was expected to begin around 0400 GMT.
However, Araghchi indicated that Iran would halt its retaliatory operations if Israel ended its military actions. “If the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards,” he said.

Launch of VVP-II from Cachar testament of Barak Valley's national importance: Himanta
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.
