Ceasefire .
President Donald Trump said on social media Monday that a ceasefire deal has been reached between Israel and Iran, just after Iran launched a missile attack on a U.S. military base in Qatar.
Neither Israel or Iran have confirmed if they have agreed to the ceasefire deal.
The president’s post was written hours after Iran launched the missiles, that targeted the Al Udeid Air Base, in retaliation for the American bombing of Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend.

The president said in the post that the ceasefire would take place just after midnight U.S. eastern time Tuesday, followed by the official end of the war, 12 hours later.
The war began on June 13 when Israel launched a series of attacks on Iran’s nuclear and military facilities.
Notice..
President Trump said Monday the Iranian government offered "early notice" about a series of missile strikes that targeted the U.S. Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, downplaying Iran's response to the U.S. bombing of three Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend as "very weak."
"I want to thank Iran for giving us early notice, which made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured," Mr. Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
Just a thought.
Poll..
A CNN polling has indicated that Republicans now hold a clear advantage with voters on economic issues. Economic concerns, especially about inflation and recession, have increasingly shaped public opinion and party preferences. Voters now see only 16% of Democrats as strong leaders.
Reuters/Ipsos polls show the Republican lead is growing. Republicans are expected to hold an advantage as the party is viewed as better on economic matters.
CNN polling analyst Harry Enten said, “How is it possible after all the recession fears? After the stock market’s been doing all of this, after all the tariffs that Americans are against and Republicans still hold an eight-point lead on the economy? Are you kidding me!?”
Reaching .
In reaching Iran, Israeli aircraft would likely fly over the airspace of several countries situated between Israel and Iran, including Syria and Iraq.Airspace Transit: Israeli aircraft would have to fly through the airspace of countries located between Israel and Iran, with Syria and Iraq being the most probable routes.
Air Superiority: Israel's success in reaching Iran suggests a significant degree of air superiority over the region.
Air Defense Suppression: Israel has conducted strikes aimed at degrading Iranian air defense systems, including S-300 batteries, likely facilitating access to Iranian airspace.
Refueling Missions: The considerable distance between Israel and Iran (around 1,400 miles) necessitates mid-air refueling for long-range operations, which are supported by squadrons like the "Desert Giants".
International Reactions: The ongoing conflict has led to disruptions in airspace usage, with airlines diverting flights and some countries implementing restrictions.
