Missile impact site photographed in Be'er Sheva

Iranian state media said a ceasefire between Iran and Israel came into effect at 7:30 a.m. local time on Tuesday. Iran launched a final round of missile strikes at targets inside Israel just minutes before the ceasefire began, the reports said.

President Trump credits US B-2 pilots who bombed Iran's underground nuclear site for the ceasefire.

"We couldn’t have made today’s “deal” without the talent and courage of our great B-2 pilots, and all of those associated with that operation," Trump posted on Truth Social.

"In a certain and very ironic way, that perfect “hit,” late in the evening, brought everyone together, and the deal was made!!!"

Israel's emergency service confirms three people were killed when an Iranian ballistic missile struck an apartment block in Beersheba in southern Israel.

Several others are wounded.

Media in Israel report a direct missile impact in Beersheba in southern Israel, damaging a building.

Emergency services say they're trying to reach people trapped in the damaged building.

The Israeli military says it has detected missiles fired from Iran - more than an hour after Tehran confirmed ceasefire had taken effect.

Sirens are reported in various parts of Israel and air defences activated.
