Conflicting reports are emerging just hours after the Israel–Iran ceasefire was declared, raising doubts about its stability.

Iran’s state-run news agency denied claims that Iran fired missiles at Israel following the start of the ceasefire, calling such reports “false.” The denial comes in response to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), which stated that two missiles were launched from Iranian territory after the ceasefire went into effect, triggering air raid sirens in northern Israel.

Local residents in the region reported hearing interceptions, though no immediate casualties or damage were confirmed.

Elsewhere, Iran’s semi-official media reported that a senior commander of the Basij paramilitary force was killed in an earlier Israeli airstrike a development that could further inflame tensions.

Despite the volatility, European Commission President Kaja Kallas said today that the fragile ceasefire should serve as an opportunity to return to negotiations. “The ceasefire, though fragile, is a necessary first step toward diplomatic dialogue,” she said.

U.S. President Donald Trump, who helped broker the ceasefire, also weighed in. Speaking at a press event, Trump said he opposes regime change in Iran, warning that such actions would lead to “chaos.” He reiterated that diplomacy, not escalation, should guide the next steps.

The ceasefire was declared less than 24 hours ago, following nearly two weeks of military exchanges between Israel and Iran. International observers are closely watching to see if the agreement holds.
