US President Donald Trump played a central role in brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Iran on Monday, following a dramatic escalation in hostilities, said a senior White House official.
According to the official, who spoke to Reuters on condition of anonymity, Trump personally held a phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and special envoy Steve Witkoff simultaneously engaged in diplomatic efforts with Iranian counterparts.
The ceasefire agreement reportedly hinges on a key condition: Israel would halt its military operations if Iran refrained from launching any further attacks. The official said that Iran had signalled it was prepared to de-escalate, indicating no immediate plans for additional strikes. The breakthrough came after days of high-stakes deliberations, including Trump’s direct involvement in coordinating both sides.
