Despite the announcement of a ceasefire, the Israeli Air Force continues to carry out strikes in Iran, a security official tells The Times of Israel.

Iran, meanwhile, has fired several salvos of ballistic missiles at Israel since the ceasefire was reportedly supposed to take effect.

Additionally, while Pakistan’s prime minister said the ceasefire would also include Lebanon, there is no indication that Israel has halted its operations against Hezbollah as of yet.
