Day 102 | Iran and 'Israel' halt strikes against each other but warn of renewed attacks
'Israel' and Iran have suspended military operations against each other, easing fears of an immediate escalation in the regional conflict, though both sides warned they are prepared to resume attacks under certain conditions.
'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said 'Israel' has ceased strikes on Iran but stopped short of confirming a formal ceasefire, despite US President Donald Trump's earlier suggestion that the two countries were moving toward one.
Iran also announced the end of its military operations against 'Israel'. However, Tehran warned that its response would be renewed if 'Israel' resumes attacks on southern Lebanon or Iranian territory. Iran's armed forces said any future 'Israeli' action would be met with "a more crushing" response.
Signs of de-escalation were also visible on the ground. Iran's Civil Aviation Organization said the country's airspace has returned to "normal conditions," with flight operations expected to resume. In 'Israel', authorities said restrictions on schools and workplaces will be lifted from 6 a.m. local time on Tuesday.
