These guys [have] got to calm down,” he said.The president continued: “We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing.”In a later post, he said: “The ceasefire is in effect.”How have Iran and Israel responded?Two hours after Israel said it had agreed to the truce, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had identified missiles launched from Iran.Katz accused Iran of a “complete violation” of the terms, adding that he had instructed the military to “continue the intense activity of attacking Tehran to thwart regime targets and terrorist infrastructures”.The Iranian military denied it had fired missiles after the ceasefire had taken effect.Later, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said that “in the final moments before the ceasefire was imposed on the enemy”, it had struck “military and logistical centres” in Israel.The IRGC-affiliated Tasnim news agency reported Israel had launched “a three-phase” military strike on its territory after the ceasefire.Iran’s Supreme National Security Council earlier said Israeli attacks would be “met with a decisive, firm, and timely response by Iran”.Has the ceasefire been broken?The Israeli military accused Iran of launching missiles toward its territory after the truce came into force on Tuesday, which Iran has denied.Before the truce began, Iran and Israel exchanged heavy fire.The IDF said several rounds of strikes hit the country on Monday night into Tuesday. Rescue workers said four people were killed and 22 injured in the town of Beersheba.At the time, Iranian state media said Iran had launched “a last round of missiles” against Israel.Overnight, Iranian state TV reported that the capital, Tehran, endured some of its most intense air defence clashes since the war broke out on 13 June, and residents told BBC Persian they heard loud explosions.The IDF said it struck and destroyed missile launchers in western Iran that it said were “ready to be fired at Israeli territory”.Tehran said another nuclear scientist was killed before the agreement took force.Why did Israel attack Iran?Israel attacked nuclear and military sites in Iran on Friday 13 Ju …
