Jerusalem, 24 June 2025 – The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have announced a robust military response following what they describe as a “severe violation” of a ceasefire by the Iranian regime. The statement comes from Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir, Chief of the General Staff, during a situational assessment earlier today.

In a post on X, the IDF quoted LTG Zamir, stating, “In light of the severe violation of the ceasefire carried out by the Iranian regime, we will respond with force.” The announcement has heightened tensions in the region, with Israel signalling its intent to take decisive action.

Details of the alleged violation remain undisclosed, but the IDF’s response suggests a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict. Analysts speculate that Iran’s actions may involve military or proxy activities that breached the terms of the ceasefire agreement.

The international community is closely monitoring the situation, with calls for restraint to avoid further destabilisation in the Middle East. Neither Iran nor its representatives have issued an immediate response to the IDF’s statement.

The IDF has not specified the nature or timing of its planned response, but military officials are expected to provide further updates as the situation develops.
