Note that when UN workers say things like "may have violated international law", that should be understood as spoken in not normal English, but the separate Diplomatese language where "may have" or "raise serious concerns" is the strongest terms a person can use unless they are an actual judge ruling on the matter at hand.

Iran says missile attack matched number of US bombs, signaling likely desire to de-escalate
Iran said its missile attack on Al Udeid air base in Qatar matched the number of bombs dropped by the United States on Iranian nuclear sites this weekend, signaling Iran’s likely desire to deescalate, AP reports.
Iran made the announcement on Monday night in a statement from its Supreme National Security Council after the attack, which Qatar said caused no injuries.
Iran also said it targeted the base because it was outside of populated areas.

Collective statement from Evin Prison, Tehran, in rough translation,
part 1 of 2:
─────
Today, Monday, June 23, 2025, Evin Prison was targeted by an airstrike. As a result of the impact from fighter jets attributed to Israel, parts of the administrative buildings, medical facilities, and the judicial office of the prison were severely damaged and destroyed.
Following this attack, a section of Ward 4 collapsed, windows and glass were shattered, and the interior space of the prison was destabilized. Simultaneously, many prisoners, in fear and seeking to save their lives, took refuge on lower floors, which resulted in injuries to several of them.
The prison's medical facilities have been effectively destroyed, and there are no initial resources available to address the condition of the injured inmates. Despite the deteriorating condition of some of the wounded, prison authorities have refused to transfer them to medical centers outside the prison, effectively leaving them without any care.
Meanwhile, instead of providing aid, security forces and prison guards have heavily secured the prison by deploying extensively in the wards, creating a highly secure environment. Threats, intimidation, and pressure on prisoners have increased, and we are facing double repression.

Part 2 of 2 of collective statement from Evin Prison, Tehran, in rough translation:
─────
Outside the prison, all routes leading to Evin have been completely blocked, and families are prevented from entering. Nevertheless, some families, despite the danger, have gathered in front of Evin Prison to learn about the fate of their loved ones.
We, the defenseless prisoners under siege, declare: In the face of bombardment, we had neither shelter nor an escape route; and in the face of the organized crime that has cast a shadow over our bodies, lives, and dignity for years, there is no shield left.
We appeal to the people, families, activists, and awakened consciences:
Do not remain silent.
Gather immediately in front of Evin Prison to save our lives.
We are injured, threatened, and may lose our lives at any moment.

Iran’s foreign minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi has responded to reports of a ceasefire with Israel, saying in a post on X.
'As Iran has repeatedly made clear: Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around. As of now, there is NO “agreement” on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations. However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards. The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.'

If you're confused as to whether there is a ceasefire between Israel and Iran now as Trump claimed, then don't worry it seems everyone is confused.
It seems to me there was no agreement, but Trump says there is one with unclear terms, so some regime officials on both sides of the war claim they're following those terms as of the would-be-deadline regardless of not having actually agreed, while others seem to be continuing as previously.

@b9AcE Trump probably knew Israel would breach any declared ceasefire. This gives him cover to back out and wag a finger at Bibi the Butcher and placate his MTG/Proud Boys isolationist nazi wing. On the up side, it may also provide breathing room to fight the military and Magilla Kurilla's urge to murder for money.
@LightFIAR Hmm, I think Trump wanted to come out of this with a diplomatic achievement, to be able to make claims of having achieved peace through ordering USA to bomb Iran, to further the ridiculous claims that "I should have gotten the Nobel Peace Prize five times", as well as to get the anti-war GOPers you mention to get back under control.
But who knows what that clown wants.
@b9AcE Like everything with Trump, it will be a lose-lose situation, with many OTHER people harmed or killed because he's a fucking idiot.
