New Leak Reveals Israel’s ‘Samson Option’ Includes American Cities on Nuclear Target List

Iran denies ceasefire with Israel but signals it will stop strikes if Israeli attacks end - 33 minutes ago from 7:54pm PST
https://trt.global/world/article/d0f388577bb1

Iran comments on ceasefire reports with Israeli regime
"As Iran has repeatedly made clear: Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around," Araghchi wrote on X. 
"As of now, there is NO "agreement" on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations. However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards," he stressed. 
"The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later," he concluded.
