Israeli media say at least 3 people have been killed in the southern city of Beersheba after Iran launched several volleys of missiles at the country.
This comes after US President Donald Trump said Israel and Iran have agreed to a truce to bring an end to what he called the “12-day war”. The ceasefire will take place in stages, he said.
But Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says there’s no agreement on a ceasefire with Israel, but that Tehran will halt attacks if Israel stops its “illegal aggression” by 4am local time (00:30 GMT). Israel is yet to comment publicly.
Hours earlier, Iran fired a salvo of missiles at a military base in Qatar that houses American troops in retaliation for the US’s attacks on its nuclear sites on Sunday.
Iran says that more than 400 people, including 13 children, have been killed and at least 3,056 others wounded since Israel launched its attack on June 13. In Israel, at least 24 people have been killed in Iranian strikes.
