Iran's Security Council Declares Victory Over Israel
[Regnum] Iran won and forced Israel to stop attacks on its territory. This was reported on June 24 by the Al Jazeera TV channel, citing the Security Council of the Islamic Republic.
Hooooboy — that’s funny!"We forced the enemy to repent, admit defeat and stop aggression unilaterally. Our armed forces are ready to respond decisively and painfully to any hostile actions of the enemy," the statement said.
In addition, the Security Council clarified that Iran's armed forces remain on alert, and the country's leadership does not trust the enemy's statements.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on the evening of June 23, US President Donald Trump announced that Tehran and Tel Aviv had agreed to maintain a ceasefire. According to him, Iran was to stop the strikes first, and Israel 12 hours later.
Then Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said no such agreement had been reached. Israel's N12 TV channel also reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had asked ministers not to comment on the ceasefire deal with Iran.
The following day, Netanyahu's office issued a statement that Tel Aviv had eliminated Tehran's nuclear and missile threats and had achieved all military objectives against the Islamic Republic. In addition, Israel, in full coordination with the head of the White House, had accepted the initiative for a bilateral ceasefire.
However, on the night of June 24, Iran fired missiles that hit a seven-story building in the Israeli city of Be'er Sheva. Several explosions had previously occurred in different parts of Israel. The country's Defense Minister Israel Katz ordered the IDF to respond decisively to Iran's violation of the ceasefire.

[IsraelTimes] Iran says it executed three men accused of spying for Israel, the day after a truce between the two countries came into effect.
“Idris Ali, Azad Shojai and Rasoul Ahmad Rasoul, who attempted to import equipment into the country to carry out assassinations, were arrested and tried for… cooperation favoring the Zionist regime,” the judiciary says, referring to Israel.
“The sentence was carried out this morning… and they were hanged.”
The executions took place in Urmia, a northwestern city near the border with Turkey, the judiciary says, sharing photos of the three men in blue prison uniforms.

Iran is the world’s second-most prolific executioner after China, according to human rights groups, including Amnesty International.
In the hour before the ceasefire started, Iran fired 6 salvos at Israel, 20 missiles total, killing 4
[IsraelTimes] In the hour before the ceasefire was set to take effect, Iran fired six separate salvos at Israel, totaling some 20 missiles. The use of successive small barrages aimed at different parts of the country, which had also been employed a day earlier, marked a stark shift from the early days of the war, when Iran would seek to overwhelm Israel’s missile defenses with large-scale volleys of up to 60 missiles at a time.
According to some experts, the apparent change in strategy was a reflection of Iran’s attempts to squeeze what it could out of an increasingly depleted missile stockpile. In Tuesday morning’s case, the attack destroyed an apartment building in Beersheba and killing four people who had been sheltering in safe rooms.
