Inside Trump’s Ceasefire Deal: Pulse White House Reporter Explains

Former President Donald Trump has announced what he calls a “complete and total ceasefire” between Iran and Israel, declaring an end to what he dubbed “The 12 Day War.” In a statement on Truth Social, Trump said the ceasefire will begin within hours and follow a two-step process: 12 hours of paused operations by Iran, followed by 12 hours from Israel. If both parties comply, Trump claims the war will be officially over.

But how real is this deal? Is it binding? And what role—if any—did U.S. diplomacy play?

In this video from Pulse Insider, our White House reporter breaks down the terms of the ceasefire, the credibility of the announcement, and what could happen next on the ground. With no formal treaty, no independent verification, and rising skepticism from global analysts, this ceasefire may mark the end of fighting—or just the beginning of new uncertainty.
