Iran has not publicly rejected the ceasefire but tensions with the U.S. and Israel remain high following a conflict that has stretched over 12 days. Both Iran and Israel have claimed "victory" in the war. Iran has suffered damages to key nuclear and military infrastructure while its missiles have hit deep into Israeli territory.

Iran fired a final wave of deadly missiles at Israel before acknowledging the deal, while Israel said it accepted the proposal because all its military objectives were already achieved.
