Iran Warns Israel May Break Ceasefire, Threatens Response

Iran's top military commander, Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi, has expressed deep skepticism about Israel's commitment to the ceasefire that ended a nearly two-week conflict initiated by an Israeli airstrike on Iran's nuclear program. Mousavi warned that Iran is fully prepared to respond with force if hostilities resume, emphasizing that while Iran did not start the conflict, it retaliated powerfully against Israeli aggression. The fighting resulted in over 1,000 deaths, including at least 417 civilians, with Iran launching more than 550 ballistic missiles toward Israel, causing casualties and damage despite interceptions. Iran's ambassador to the UN, Amir Saeid Iravani, also rejected international pressure to limit Iran's nuclear and missile programs, asserting that Israel sought the ceasefire due to Iran's military strength and reaffirming Iran's commitment to nuclear enrichment. These statements highlight Tehran's readiness to continue its military and nuclear activities despite the ceasefire brokered by U.S. President Donald Trump and ongoing regional tensions. Visual reports from the conflict include missile interceptions over Israel and demonstrations against U.S. and Israeli actions, underscoring the broader geopolitical volatility.
