A US official told CNN that the ceasefire between the United States and Iran has ended, at least temporarily, according to the network's report. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, did not specify the duration of the pause or whether the cessation is tactical or policy-driven. The statement comes hours after President Trump declared on Wednesday that the ceasefire was over, vowing 'very heavy' strikes on Iran. The Zioneer reported earlier on Wednesday that Trump's announcement followed an escalation involving an Iranian attack on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and subsequent US strikes. The official's confirmation, while anonymous, adds a layer of on-record sourcing to an event previously described only by the president. No further details on the operational status of US forces or Iranian responses have been reported.
