The anticipated ceasefire between Iran and Israel, scheduled to commence at midnight Eastern Daylight Time, has already been violated by Iran, as reported by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). At 12:18 AM EDT, the IDF announced that missile launch sirens were blaring in Israel, following a missile launch originating from Iran.
🚨BREAKING: 28 minutes after the ceasefire began, additional launches from Iran were detected.
Israeli airspace was closed until further notice.

However, Iran claims that the ceasefire did start at the appointed time – Tehran is seven and a half hours ahead of Washington, DC.
🚨 The Iranian news agency ‘Fars’, affiliated with the Iranian regime, reported that “after the latest Iranian missile strike and a number of casualties, the ceasefire began at 7:30 a.m., Tehran time.”

Not sure if they’re going to claim that their clocks weren’t synced or what the explanation will be for these time discrepancies.
A few hours earlier a ballistic missile hit Beersheba; as of press time the reported number of people killed (from former IDF soldier Eli Afriat) was four, and multiple people were rescued from the rubble.
