Last night American President Donald Trump announced that Iran and Israel had agreed on a “full and total ceasefire.” At 7:00 am Dutch time it would start-fire. An hour later, Israel confirmed this decision, and Iran also indicated that he wanted to stick to this as long as Israel would stop attacking Iran.
But the peace was of very short duration and the two countries seem to be heading for new violence again. In the meantime, Trump responds with very hard language to the actions of the two countries.
Trump responds fiercely
An hour and a half later, at 9.30 am Dutch time, Israel claimed to have intercepted Iranian rockets above northern Israel. Iran denied firing rockets, but Israel promised to respond strongly. This is reported, among other things, BBC. Trump soon tried to keep peace and said the following on his own truth social:
“Israel, don’t let those bombs fall. If you do it anyway, that’s a gross violation. Get your pilots back now.”
Trump is transparent about the situation and explains what is going on. In conversation with reporters, before he leaves for NATO summit in The Hague, he said the following:
“There was one [Iraanse] Rocket that, I assume, has been fired late, after the deadline had passed, and now Israel is released. Those guests really have to calm down. I didn’t like it that Israel immediately started to fire after we had concluded the agreement, “he says, referring to the ceasefire that he had previously announced.” That really wasn’t necessary. “
The president continues: “In fact, we have two countries here that have been fighting against each other for so long and hard that they no longer have a clue what they are doing.”
The latest developments
The situation is currently literally changing by the minute. In the meantime, the escalation seems to end with a hiss again. Or not? According to the latest reports, Trump would have had a conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. According to Trump’s last statement, Israel Iran will not attack after this emergency consultation, and the pilots will return.
But with this not everything seems clear. According to Axios, Netanyahu has indicated to Trump that he could not break the attack. According to the Israeli Prime Minister, an answer to the Iranian violation is required.
Just like the world, the Cryptomarkt currently seems to look the cat out of the tree and to wait for more clarity from the Middle East. Bitcoin (BTC) remains stable above 105,000 in the midst of the voltages. But volatility is lurking and fluctuations are to be expected.
