Missiles have been fired towards Israel from Iran, just hours after Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed a 24-hour ceasefire had had been agreed.
Israel’s defence minister said the country’s military would “launch powerful strikes” on Iran, less than four hours after the two countries declared a ceasefire.
The Israeli prime minister said the ceasefire was brokered by United States President Donald Trump with the help of Qatar to end a 12-day war.
However, the fragile truce was shattered when Iran launched multiple waves of ballistic missiles targeting Israeli territory.
The attacks resulted in the deaths of at least four people and caused significant damage to a building in the city of Be’er Sheva.
The renewed hostilities have cast doubt on the effectiveness of the ceasefire and raised concerns about the potential for a wider escalation in the region.
