🚨🇮🇱🇱🇧 BREAKING: Netanyahu says Israel will NOT include Lebanon in the two-week ceasefire. Hours ago senior Israeli security officials confirmed to Ynet that it was included. Either Netanyahu just overruled his own security establishment or the terms are already unraveling before the first night is over. Pakistan and Iran both stated Lebanon is included...

🇮🇷 Iranians are celebrating this ceasefire. After over a month of fighting, the country gets a reprieve from sirens and bombs.

Israel is continuing to strike Iran despite the White House saying it had agreed to a two-week ceasefire, an Israeli military official told the Associated Press. The contradiction suggests the ceasefire is not yet in effect on the ground, echoing earlier breakdowns in June before Trump publicly lashed out at both sides. Iran has also continued attacks on Israel, Al Jazeera reported.

🚨 Israeli strikes have continued across southern Lebanon, despite the ceasefire, with a new attack in Saida killing at least 8 people and wounding 22, according to Al Jazeera. A separate strike hit a medical center in Chaqra, killing multiple paramedics. There has been no confirmation of a ceasefire from either Israel or Hezbollah regarding Israel’s invasion of Lebanon.

@hughsansom @jeremyscahill they're still launching missiles as we speak. 1 official says it'll take a while for the ceasefire deal to reach all the ranks of the IRGC, but Israel is also still carrying out attacks on Iran

Important to remember that twice in less than a year, the U.S. claimed to be negotiating with Iran and then (with Israel) launched wars against Iran. Trump was in trouble with this war in multiple ways and needed a pause or an offramp. Time will tell what the motive is.

@DropSiteNews Actually now a new update says that Israel agreed to tag along. But Iran said that they have to stop aggression towards Hezbollah -- we'll see if that part holds up.

@DropSiteNews The deal is bilateral not trilateral. The ceasefire is only between the US and Iran, it does not include Israel.

🚨 US PRESIDENT TRUMP: “I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks” – a “double sided CEASEFIRE.” 🔸Trump says he will pause planned strikes on Iran for two weeks after talks with Pakistan’s leadership, conditioning the move on Tehran reopening the Strait of Hormuz. ▫️The pause is contingent on the “COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz.” 🔸Trump claims the U.S. has “met and exceeded all Military objectives.” 🔸Says a “10 point proposal from Iran” is now a “workable basis” for a broader deal. 🔸Adds the sides are “very far along with a definitive Agreement” on long-term peace. 🔸He described the two-week window as time to “finalize and consummate” a wider agreement to end the war.

Iran’s position is that it has offered a reasonable path forward to end the war & says it remains open to negotiations with the U.S. But it says it will not accept ultimatums. If a deal happens imminently or in the near future, Iran says it will be because its bottom lines are met.

🚨A senior Iranian official told me that this proposal floated by the Pakistani PM for a temporary ceasefire is essentially the same as previous Trump attempts, which Iran has rejected. Iran has already delivered its terms for negotiating an end to the war. “A balanced proposal, endorsed by all mediators, has already been conveyed to the American side,” the official said. “Washington now has at its disposal all the elements required to reach a decision that will bring an end to the war.”
Shehbaz Sharif@CMShehbaz

Diplomatic efforts for peaceful settlement of the ongoing war in the Middle East are progressing steadily, strongly and powerfully with the potential to lead to substantive results in near future. To allow diplomacy to run its course, I earnestly request President Trump to extend the deadline for two weeks. Pakistan, in all sincerity, requests the Iranian brothers to open Strait of Hormuz for a corresponding period of two weeks as a goodwill gesture. We also urge all warring parties to observe a ceasefire everywhere for two weeks to allow diplomacy to achieve conclusive termination of war, in the interest of long-term peace and stability in the region. @realDonaldTrump @JDVance @SecRubio @SteveWitkoff @SEPeaceMissions @drpezeshkian @mb_ghalibaf @araghchi

🚨 IMPORTANT — THIS IS NOT A DRILL. READ EVERY WORD. B-52 and B-2 bombers are in the air heading toward Iran RIGHT NOW. Here's exactly what happens next — step by step: Step 1 ✅ B-52s take off from RAF Fairford, UK — CONFIRMED Step 2 ✅ Flight path through Gibraltar and Mediterranean (France and Spain denied overflight) — CONFIRMED Step 3 ✅ Aerial refueling over the Med — standard for this route Step 4 ⏳ Bombers reach Iranian airspace — approximately 8pm ET tonight Step 5 ⏳ JDAM gravity bombs dropped on pre-selected targets — missile factories, IRGC command nodes, underground facilities Step 6 ⏳ B-2 stealth bombers hit hardened underground targets with 30,000-pound Massive Ordnance Penetrators Step 7 ⏳ Iran attempts retaliation — missiles toward US assets in the Gulf and Israeli targets Step 8 ⏳ Oil prices spike as Strait of Hormuz tensions escalate Step 9 ⏳ Global markets react to expanded bombing campaign Step 10 ⏳ Trump addresses the nation — frames it as "final phase" Steps 1-3 already happened TODAY. Steps 4-6 will happen within HOURS. Steps 7-10 by tomorrow morning. This is not 2003 Iraq. Iran has missiles that reach Tel Aviv. Iran has allies across the region. Iran has already shot down an F-15E. Bookmark this. Screenshot this. Come back in 24 hours. the update i'm working on tonight is going to change how you see all of this.. make sure you're following.

📌 Iran says energy infrastructure can withstand U.S. attacks Iranian energy officials and parliamentarians reassured the public that the country’s electricity grid possesses “significant resilience” and can withstand potential U.S. strikes, according to The New Arab. Officials pointed to the country’s diversification of its production sources, the wide geographic distribution of power plants, and an interconnected national ring network capable of redistributing power.

Iran-affiliated cyber actors are targeting operational technology devices across US critical infrastructure, including programmable logic controllers (PLCs). These attacks have led to diminished PLC functionality, manipulation of display data and, in some cases, operational disruption and financial loss. The @FBI, @CISAGov, @NSAgov, @EPA, @ENERGY and @US_CYBERCOM are urging US organizations—especially municipalities and those in the water and energy sectors—to review the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) and indicators of compromise (IOCs) detailed in this advisory. Applying the recommended mitigations will reduce the risk of compromise: ic3.gov/CSA/2026/26040…

BREAKING: The White House now believes a deal with Iran is possible before the 8PM deadline tonight, per Axios. 24 hours ago the question was whether a deal could happen at all. Now the question is whether it can happen in time. Vance says he is confident Iran will respond before 8PM.

💢📰 REPORT | New reporting from NYT reveals how Trump decided to go to war with Iran — after a closed-door Israeli pitch and despite deep internal divisions inside his own team. At a secret Feb. 11 Situation Room meeting, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented a four-part pitch for regime change, including a video montage of potential replacement leaders such as Reza Pahlavi. JD Vance was absent, stuck in Azerbaijan. Appearing alongside Mossad chief David Barnea and military officials, Netanyahu argued: Iran’s ballistic missile program could be destroyed in weeks. The regime would be too weak to close the Strait of Hormuz. Street protests — fomented with Mossad help — could trigger an uprising. Kurdish fighters from Iraq could open a ground front in the northwest. Trump’s response: “Sounds good to me.” Trump’s response: “Sounds good to me.” The next day, U.S. intelligence pushed back sharply. CIA Director John Ratcliffe called the regime-change scenario “farcical,” with Secretary of State Marco Rubio adding: “In other words, it’s bullshit.” Gen. Dan Caine told the president: “This is, in my experience, standard operating procedure for the Israelis. They oversell, and their plans are not always well-developed.” Trump dismissed regime change as “their problem” — but remained focused on targeting Iran’s leadership and military. By Feb. 26, in a final Situation Room meeting, opposition inside the room was clear but fractured. Vice President JD Vance warned the war could spiral and drain U.S. resources, but ultimately said: “You know I think this is a bad idea… but I’ll support you.” Rubio said regime change was unrealistic, but destroying Iran’s missile program was achievable. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was the biggest proponent of war and backed immediate action. Military leadership outlined risks, including depleted munitions and the threat to Hormuz, but all stopped short of opposing the plan. Key officials responsible for managing the fallout, like the Treasury Secretary, and DNI Gabbard were notably absent. Trump went around the table asking advisors their view, then made the call: “I think we need to do it.” The strikes began two days later.
