Iranian MP warns against trusting ceasefire with Israel

A senior Iranian lawmaker has warned that the ceasefire with Israel and the United States should not be trusted, describing the war as a failure for Tehran’s enemies and a moment of “national empowerment.”

In an interview with Tasnim News, Parliamentary Secretary Sodeif Badri said the strikes on Iran by Israel and the US were aimed at weakening the country and failed to achieve either maximum or minimum objectives.

Badri cautioned that the current calm should not be mistaken for security. “We must not trust this ceasefire,” he said, adding that Iran’s armed forces are “ready with their fingers on the trigger.”
