Protests continue in Iran, where the country has declared victory after US President Donald Trump announced an indefinite ceasefire. As Iranians celebrate, they also say they will not leave the streets in the face of threats from the US and Israel, with the largest protests to date held in Tehran. Thousands gathered in Enghelab and Venep squares, chanting slogans against the US and Israel.
Despite days having passed since the US announced an indefinite ceasefire and Iran declared victory, the public has not left the squares empty.
PROTESTS CONTINUE IN TEHRAN
Thousands of people gathered at Tehran's symbolic landmarks, Enqelab and Vanak squares, unceasingly continuing their celebrations, while in the demonstrations that have been ongoing for days, the message was given that the military and political success achieved will be preserved.
A SHOW OF STRENGTH WITH THOUSANDS
The people celebrated the victory on one hand, while on the other hand, they made a show of strength by sending the message 'we are in the squares' against possible threats from the US and Israel. Officials stated that these demonstrations, with participation increasing every day, have become one of the longest and most massive celebrations in the country's history.
TRUMP EXTENDED THE CEASEFIRE INDEFINITELY
US President Donald Trump had announced that, upon Pakistan's request, he decided to extend the ceasefire until Iran presents its proposal for an agreement.
US President Trump made an important statement on his Truth Social account as uncertainty over negotiations with Iran continues.
Trump argued that the Iranian administration is 'divided' and, taking into account Pakistan's request regarding the ceasefire, announced that he extended the temporary ceasefire that was set to expire today.
In his statement, US President Trump said: 'Given the fact that the Iranian administration is in a serious division, and upon the request of Pakistan's Marshal Asim Munir and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, we were asked to suspend our attack on Iran until their leaders and representatives present a joint proposal. Therefore, I have instructed our military to maintain the blockade and remain ready in all aspects; hence, I will extend the ceasefire until (Iran's) proposal is presented and the negotiations conclude in some way.'
