An Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps spokesman said that Israel was continuing to violate the ceasefire to end the 12-day war, threatening a further resumption of hostilities if attacks continued.

“This aggressive regime has violated the country’s airspace using drones and, from this morning until now, has targeted and attacked certain areas of the country,” IRGC spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Ebrahim Zolfaghari said.

Earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump scolded both sides for early violations of the truce he announced, but directed especially stinging criticism at Washington's close ally Israel over the scale of its strikes, telling it to "calm down now".

He later said Israel called off further attacks at his command to preserve the deal to end a 12-day air war with Iran.

Israeli armed forces chief of staff Eyal Zamir said the military was at "the conclusion of a significant chapter but the campaign against Iran is not over", though he added the military was refocusing on its war against Hamas in Gaza.

Iran's armed forces General Staff denied that there had been any launch of missiles towards Israel after ceasefire was announced a few hours earlier, state TV said.

Iran's top security body, the Supreme National Security Council Said its military had forced Israel to "unilaterally accept defeat and accept a ceasefire", but warned that .

The Israeli military said it detected launches from Iran to which Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said Israel would respond "forcefully".

Iran's Supreme National Security Council, its top security body, said its armed forces were prepared to "decisively respond" to renewed attacks.

Also Iranians rallied in Tehran and other cities to thank the country’s armed forces for valiantly fighting off the Israeli and American aggression and forcing them to unilaterally declare a ceasefire after 12 days of imposed war.
