United Nations, UN Secretary-General António Guterres has welcomed the ceasefire announcement between Iran and Israel.

Before both sides confirmed that a ceasefire was in place early Tuesday, they exchanged fire, with Tehran residents saying they had experienced a heavy barrage of attacks.

In a social media post, the UN chief urged both countries to fully respect the ceasefire.

“The fighting must stop. The people of the two countries have already suffered too much,” Guterres said.

“It is my sincere hope that this ceasefire can be replicated in the other conflicts in the region,” he stressed.
