Israeli 'regime' was 'begging' US for ceasefire, Iran says

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said in a statement on Tuesday that the Israeli "regime" was "begging" the US for a ceasefire before President Donald Trump made the announcement on Monday, according to Iran's Press TV. 

Israel was “frustrated by the heroic resistance of the Iranian nation", the IRGC said. 

It added that the last phase of its Operation True Promise III taught a “historic and unforgettable lesson” to Israel after its “brutal and blind” aggression, which killed more than 300 civilians in Tehran.
