The 60-day ceasefire between the United States and Iran has ended, and the agreement has collapsed without achieving its stated objectives, according to a report by The Zioneer. The ceasefire, part of a broader Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) reached in June, was intended to create a diplomatic window for negotiations on Iran's nuclear program and regional activities. No formal extension or new agreement has been announced.
According to a report by The Zioneer, the 60-day ceasefire between the United States and Iran has concluded, and the agreement has collapsed without achieving its objectives. The ceasefire was the central component of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) reached in June 2026, intended to halt direct military exchanges and create a diplomatic window for negotiations on Iran's nuclear program and regional proxy activities.
The Zioneer has previously reported on the ceasefire's fragility. On June 16, Jerusalem Center for Foreign Affairs and Security Director-General Sagiv Steinberg warned that the deal was a temporary 60-day ceasefire, not a peace agreement. On June 28, Axios reported that the ceasefire was again at risk of collapse. On July 7, The Zioneer reported that a separate week-long cessation of hostilities between Iran and Israel had expired, leading to renewed Iranian attacks. The 60-day ceasefire was the most significant diplomatic framework since the onset of direct US-Iran exchanges in spring 2026.
No formal extension or new agreement has been announced. The collapse leaves the diplomatic track without a framework, with the core issues of Iran's nuclear enrichment and regional military activities remaining unresolved.
