The Iranian military declared an end to its military operations against Israel following recent missile exchanges that heightened regional tensions. Iran's announcement came after retaliatory strikes targeting Israeli facilities in response to an Israeli attack in Beirut, which resulted in casualties. The Iranian armed forces emphasized that while operations are halted, they will respond with 'much more severe and crushing actions' if aggressions, especially in southern Lebanon, persist. This escalation has raised concerns over the stability of ongoing US-Iran peace negotiations aimed at resolving the conflict in West Asia. US President Donald Trump called for an immediate cessation of hostilities, while Iranian officials accused the US of exacerbating tensions through its support of Israel. Additionally, Yemen's Houthi rebels have joined the conflict, launching missile attacks on Israel and imposing restrictions on Israeli shipping in the Red Sea, further complicating the situation.
