Donald Trump’s unilateral extension of the ceasefire is not a goodwill gesture toward Iran but a clear admission of defeat, signaling that Washington now fears re-entering a war it cannot win against the resilient Iranian nation.

Donald Trump unilaterally extended the ceasefire with Iran on Tuesday night, while Tehran rejected talks under ongoing US threats and blockade.

Iran has not made a final decision on whether to participate in the next round of Pakistan-mediated talks with the United States, citing contradictory messages, inconsistent behavior and unacceptable actions by the American side, the Foreign Ministry spokesman said on Tuesday.

IRGC Quds Force commander says Hezbollah's steadfast resistance, with support from Iran, was the decisive factor behind the ceasefire in Lebanon.

A Lebanese parliamentarian from the Loyalty to the Resistance bloc says Iran’s ambassador in Beirut has informed Lebanese officials that a ceasefire will begin Thursday night.

The Lebanese health ministry says ten people, including three emergency workers, have been killed by Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon.

A day after the US announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran, day 41 opened with uncertainty as Israel broke the truce with deadly strikes on Lebanon.
