U.S. President Donald Trump said the war with Iran is finished and that Tehran has agreed never to pursue nuclear weapons, according to i24NEWS. Prime Minister Netanyahu said he spoke with Trump, who committed that the final deal will include removal of enriched material, limits on missile production, and an end to Iran's support for its proxies. Defense Minister Katz reiterated that Israel will not withdraw from security zones in Lebanon, Syria, Gaza, and northern Samaria.
U.S. President Donald Trump declared on Wednesday that the war with Iran is over and that Tehran has agreed never to obtain nuclear weapons, according to i24NEWS. Trump also criticized Iran for what he called "leaking incorrect details" about the agreement, urging Tehran to "wake up." Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he spoke with Trump, who committed that the final deal will include removal of enriched material, limits on missile production, and an end to Iran's support for its regional proxies. This latest commitment from Trump follows a thread of declarations and emerging details The Zioneer has been tracking since 22:32 Jerusalem on June 11, when Trump first stated a deal was in place that would prevent Iran from ever obtaining nuclear weapons (version 1). Over the subsequent bulletins, the timeline and delegation specifics firmed up: by 22:34 Jerusalem, Amichai Stein reported Trump said a signing ceremony in Europe could occur this weekend, with Vice President JD Vance and envoy Steve Witkoff representing the US (version 5). By 22:32, Netanyahu confirmed he had spoken with Trump, adding the details about enriched materials, missiles, and proxies (versions 6, 7, 11).
Netanyahu's remarks, as The Zioneer reported at 07:02 Jerusalem, stressed that "Iran will not have nuclear weapons." Later, at 17:31 and 17:32 Jerusalem, Defense Minister Israel Katz reiterated — as The Zioneer reported — that Israel will not withdraw from security zones in Lebanon, Syria, Gaza, and the terror camps in northern Samaria, and that he and Netanyahu have instructed the IDF to prepare for independent action against Iran if necessary.
Throughout the day, as The Zioneer reported at 17:02 Jerusalem, Trump had rejected Iranian claims about ceasefire terms, and Iranian mediators denied that a final agreement had been reached, saying gaps still exist. The Zioneer noted at 11:52 Jerusalem that while the Geneva agreement framework advanced, Jerusalem clarified it was not a party to the memorandum.
What remains open: Iran's official response to Trump's declaration. Earlier Wednesday, Iranian mediators denied a final deal has been reached, and no signing ceremony has been confirmed.
