U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said that a ceasefire was in effect, soon after Iranian state-linked media announced Tehran had fired its "last round" of missiles at Israel.
"THE CEASEFIRE IS NOW IN EFFECT. PLEASE DO NOT VIOLATE IT!" Trump said in a post on Truth Social around 1:00 a.m. stateside.
The ceasefire announcement came after Iran carried out retaliatory missile strikes at the U.S. Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar.
Within hours of the declaration, Israel accused Iran of violating the ceasefire with further missile strikes — which Tehran denied, according to Iranian media.
Trump said he was "not happy" with both Tehran and Israel, urging the Jewish state not to go ahead with a retaliatory missile strike against Iran.
CNBC reporters covered the Middle East conflict on air and online, reporting from Washington, D.C., London, Dubai, San Francisco and Englewood Cliffs, N.J, and Singapore.
