Mark Levin accuses Iran of violating two-week ceasefire

Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said on Tuesday on X that Iran and the United States, along with their allies agreed to an immediate ceasefire worldwide, including in Lebanon, and invited delegations to Islamabad on April 10 to negotiate a conclusive agreement.

"I warmly welcome the sagacious gesture and extend deepest gratitude to the leadership of both the countries and invite their delegations to Islamabad on Friday, 10th April 2026, to further negotiate for a conclusive agreement to settle all disputes," he posted on X.

"Both parties have displayed remarkable wisdom and understanding and have remained constructively engaged in furthering the cause of peace and stability. We earnestly hope, that the ‘Islamabad Talks’ succeed in achieving sustainable peace and wish to share more good news in coming days!" the post added.

Apart from US officials involved in the talks — including President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary Marco Rubio, and special envoy David Witkoff — Iranian officials mentioned in the post include President Mohammad Pezeshkian, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, and Foreign Minister Araghchi.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Tuesday on behalf of the Supreme National Security Council that Iranian armed forces will cease military operations if attacks against Iran are halted.

"Safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz will be possible for two weeks under coordination with Iranian forces," he posted on X.

Mohammad Hossein Ranjbaran, a commentator and former media advisor to Iran’s foreign minister said on Tuesday on X that Iran reached a victory with Trump accepting the proposed ceasefire.

"Trump's acceptance of the ten conditions of the Islamic Republic of Iran means the victory of the Iranian nation; All those who, with any opinion and belief, stood by dear Iran; I kiss the hands of all the proud fighters and brave commanders of the country and the dear ones of the resistance front in my own turn," he said.

President Donald Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Tuesday that he will suspend attacks on Iran for two weeks, calling it a “double-sided ceasefire,” on the condition that Tehran agrees to the “complete, immediate, and safe opening” of the Strait of Hormuz.

"The reason for doing so is that we have already met and exceeded all Military objectives, and are very far along with a definitive Agreement concerning Longterm PEACE with Iran, and PEACE in the Middle East. We received a 10 point proposal from Iran, and believe it is a workable basis on which to negotiate," Trump said.

"Almost all of the various points of past contention have been agreed to between the United States and Iran, but a two week period will allow the Agreement to be finalized and consummated. On behalf of the United States of America, as President, and also representing the Countries of the Middle East, it is an Honor to have this Long-term problem close to resolution," he added.

UN Special Rapporteur on human rights in Iran Mai Sato said in a post on X Tuesday that threats to destroy “a whole civilization” and strikes on Iran’s infrastructure, including power plants, water systems, and bridges, violate international humanitarian law and may constitute war crimes.

Sato highlighted that the Iranian population is bearing the brunt of both foreign attacks and domestic repression, including executions of political activists and crackdowns on nationwide protests.

"We must be clear about who bears the cost of this war: the people in Iran. At the same time as bombs fall from outside, Iranians face brutal repression from within — including executions of political activists and those who took part in the nationwide protests," Sato said.
