Allegations Iran launched a barrage of missiles at Israel early Tuesday morning more than two hours after the ceasefire began, which Tehran denied even as Israel announced a response, has drawn criticism of both parties by President Donald Trump.
As Breitbart News reported, sirens sounded in northern Israel and explosions could be heard as Israeli air defenses responded and commanders said the country “will respond with force.”
“Two missiles were launched from Iran and they were intercepted,” a military official told AFP on condition of anonymity, with the army saying people could leave shelters around 15 minutes after the first alert.
Iran’s ISNA news agency says reports Iran fired missiles at Israel after the ceasefire took effect were false, the Times of Israel noted.
Now Trump has intervened, saying both Israel and Iran violated ceasefire terms with attacks following an early Tuesday deadline to cease hostilities, declaring “they both don’t know what the fuck they are doing.”
