US says Iran ceasefire remains intact amid latest tensions

The United States said Saturday that its month-long ceasefire with Iran continues to hold despite recent military exchanges and renewed hostilities, according to Washington officials. The US is awaiting Iran's formal response to its latest ceasefire proposal, even as both sides have conducted recent strikes.

The fragile truce, established after escalating tensions in the region, represents one of the most delicate diplomatic efforts in months. US officials maintained that despite the recent military exchanges, the broader framework of the agreement remains functional. The ceasefire proposal under consideration includes provisions aimed at de-escalating the conflict and establishing longer-term stability mechanisms. Iran has not yet formally responded to the latest US proposal. The situation remains fluid, with both sides signaling willingness to negotiate while maintaining military readiness.
