"Approximately six hours after the final operation between the two countries ends,
"Israel and Iran have fully agreed that a 'complete and total' ceasefire will go into effect from 12:00 p.m. onwards," he said, adding, "The ceasefire will last for 12 hours, after which the war will be considered officially ended."
"Officially, Iran will start a ceasefire first, Israel will enter a ceasefire after 12 hours, and the world will announce the end of the ceasefire after 24 hours," Trump said.
"We will be celebrating the official end of the '12-Day War,'" he said, explaining, "We must maintain a peaceful and respectful attitude during each ceasefire period."
He added: "Assuming all goes according to plan, we will continue to provide support to both Israel and Iran.
"I congratulate the Americans on the perseverance, courage and wisdom shown in bringing this war to an end," he said, adding, "This war could have devastated the entire Middle East for years, but it did not."
"It has not happened and it never will," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at a press conference on the 22nd, "Israel is facing two challenges: Iran's ballistic missile and nuclear program."
"We are very close to achieving our goal of eliminating the major threat," he said, "and we will not be drawn into a war of attrition."
On the 13th, Israel launched a preemptive attack on Iran, starting an armed conflict between the two countries.
The United States then intervened and bombed three Iranian nuclear facilities on the 21st. Iran responded by launching retaliatory attacks on US military bases in Qatar and Iraq on the same day.
Prior to the attack on the US military base in Abu Dhabi, the US and Qatar were reportedly notified of the plan in advance through diplomatic channels in order to minimize damage.
In response, Trump offered an unusual thank you to Iran for the "weak attack," saying "no Americans were hurt and there was little damage."
I am very happy about this.''
