Confusion swirls over Iran-Israel ceasefire

The status of a ceasefire between Iran and Israel remains uncertain with conflicting reports emerging within minutes of an announcement by US president Donald Trump.

"Iran has not received any ceasefire offer,” CNN quoted a senior Iranian official as saying, while Reuters said the exact opposite: that "Tehran had agreed to the US proposed ceasefire."

On the Israeli side, online outlet Ynet said Israel's security cabinet remains in session and has not officially confirmed any truce.

As of now, there has been no formal confirmation from either governments.
