Iran’s Supreme National Security Council declared on Tuesday that the Islamic Republic had successfully “compelled” Israel to unilaterally stop its military operations, framing the ceasefire as a direct result of Iran’s forceful resistance during the recent 12-day conflict.
The statement, released just hours into the ceasefire brokered with U.S. involvement, described the development as a “divine gift” and a symbol of triumph over what it called “aggression by the Zionist regime.”
“The Iranian Armed Forces remain on high alert, with fingers on the trigger, prepared to deliver a swift and decisive response to any hostile action,” the council warned, stressing that Iran will not tolerate any breach of the truce.
Iranian officials maintained that their strategic retaliatory strikes in recent days were measured and calculated, aimed at deterring further escalation. While Israeli sources have accused Tehran of violating the truce with fresh missile launches, Iranian media has denied launching any rockets after the ceasefire took effect.
Despite the current lull in direct hostilities, both nations appear poised for further confrontation should the ceasefire collapse — a risk analysts believe remains dangerously high given the fragile political backdrop and unresolved tensions surrounding Iran’s nuclear ambitions and Israel’s military posture.
Observers warn that while the ceasefire may have stopped the gunfire, the war of narratives continues, as both sides seek to claim moral and strategic victory in the eyes of their people and the world.
