Trump-Hailed Mideast Truce Falters With Israel Accusing Iran of Breach | Bloomberg The Pulse 06/24 (Bloomberg)
|
|
A ceasefire declared by US President Donald Trump between Israel and Iran is being put to the test in its early hours, after a missile fired into Israel prompted accusations of a breach. Shortly after Trump declared an end to the 12-day war, Israel said it had detected a missile launch from Iran. Defense Minister Israel Katz instructed the military on Tuesday to “respond forcefully to Iran's violation of the ceasefire with powerful strikes against regime targets in the heart of Tehran.” Iran denied it fired missiles at Israel after the ceasefire came into force, according to the state-run IRIB news agency, which didn't elaborate.

Four days later, both sides are reeling from attacks on key infrastructure and shuttered industries, including in the fertilizer sector,” AgriPulse notes. “'Iran has shut down seven of its urea and ammonia plants,' said Mark Milam, senior editor for fertilizers at Independent Commodity Intelligence Services, over concerns that they could be potential Israeli targets.”

|
|
