Dubai, 8 April. Despite a two-week ceasefire agreement between America and Iran, an atmosphere of chaos has once again arisen in the Middle East. Many countries are attacking each other. The announcement of the ceasefire was followed by new attacks on Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain and Lebanon, raising serious questions about the sustainability of the ceasefire.

According to the Lebanese Health Ministry, 254 people were killed and 700 injured in Israeli attacks in Lebanon on Wednesday. A health ministry spokesman said 12 doctors were among the dead in southern Lebanon. Despite the ceasefire, an oil refinery in Iran was attacked.

Trump said – agreements, Lists and letters are being sent by people who have no connection with the talks.

On the other hand, US President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that many agreements, lists and letters are being sent by people who have absolutely nothing to do with the US/Iran talks. In many cases, they are outright fraudsters, swindlers and worse. He will be exposed immediately once our federal investigation is completed.

“The only meaningful ‘points’ are those that are acceptable to the United States,” Trump said. They will be discussed behind closed doors during the negotiations. These are the points on the basis of which we agreed to the ceasefire. This is a logical thing and can be easily avoided. This is exactly like the fake news broadcast on CNN last night, which gave prominence to a ‘source’ who had no authority or power to write the letter and who presented himself as highly credible.

Interestingly, during the ceasefire, Tehran also attacked Kuwait and UAE. New attacks ranging from attacks on Iran’s own oil infrastructure to Iranian missile and drone attacks on the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Bahrain and an intensification of Israeli attacks in Lebanon have cast immediate doubts on the sustainability of the two-week ceasefire. This was to stop the six-week-long conflict that has destabilized the region.

India welcomes ceasefire between Iran and America

Meanwhile, India on Wednesday welcomed the two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran and called for “de-escalation, dialogue and diplomacy” to ensure long-term peace in West Asia. India also expects unhindered navigation and trade across the world through the Strait of Hormuz. Hormuz is a strategically important waterway between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, through which about 20 percent of the world’s oil and LNG are transported.
