Iran’s Supreme Leader has ordered all military units to cease fire following the announcement of a ceasefire understanding between the United States and Iran, according to a statement broadcast on a state-run television and reported by CNN.
The directive was read on state-run channel IRIB roughly two hours after US President Donald Trump said Washington and Tehran had agreed to a two-week ceasefire aimed at finalising a broader diplomatic agreement.
“This is not the end of the war, but all military branches should follow the Supreme Leader’s order and cease their fire," the statement mentioned, underlining that the pause in hostilities is conditional and linked to ongoing negotiations.
