Just like that, it’s over.
President Donald Trump announced Monday that Israel and Iran have agreed to a cease-fire, in what he named an end to “the 12 Day War.”
“It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE … for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED!” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
Israel and Iran will wind down their final military operations within 6 hours, in a process that Trump expects to be “PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL” on both sides. A formal cease-fire will begin in approximately 12 hours, while the conflict will be declared over within 24 hours, Trump said, according to The Epoch Times.
“I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, ‘THE 12 DAY WAR,’” Trump wrote. “This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will!”
In an interview with Bret Baier from Fox News, Vice President JD Vance said that Trump has brought in a new day for both Iran and Israel. He called it “the reset button” for the region.
“I think the president really hit the reset button and said, ‘Look, let’s actually produce long-term peace for the region,’” Vance said.

“I actually think when we look back, we will say the 12-Day War was an important reset moment for the entire region.”
Vance said that this new era will be a chance for Iran to follow a “path of peace.” He said that Iran has supported terror networks and has not been able to make a nuclear weapon: “they’re just not very good at war.”
