The National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company says an oil refinery located on Iran\u2019s Lavan Island came under attack on Wednesday morning, despite the announcement of a ceasefire between the United States and Iran. In a statement on Wednesday, the company said the facility of Lavan oil refinery was targeted by \u201ca cowardly attack by enemies\u201d at 10:00 local time. \u201cSafety and firefighting teams are controlling and extinguishing the fire and securing the facility,\u201d the statement said. No casualties have so far been reported. \u201cFortunately, no casualties have been reported so far due to the timely evacuation of employees,\u201d the company added. The attack comes despite the announcement of a ceasefire early Wednesday after 41 days of intense fighting between Iran and the US-Israeli coalition. Israel’s Maariv newspaper admitted that the US-Israeli war against the Islamic Republic has ended in a “decisive victory for Iran,” with both the US and Israel conceding to a “strategic surrender” and retreating from the battlefield. On Wednesday, the United States and Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire after Washington received a 10-point proposal from Tehran. The Israeli newspaper emphasized that Iran has imposed a deal largely of its own design on the US, rejecting Washington’s proposal. Throughout the war, Iran continued to target Israeli and American assets in occupied Palestine and US military bases and interests in the Persian Gulf, maintaining its resilience even after 41 days of fighting. Iran\u2019s Supreme National Security Council also declared a \u201chistoric and crushing defeat\u201d of the United States and the Israeli regime, saying that Washington was forced to accept the Iranian proposal that includes a permanent ceasefire, the lifting of all sanctions, and the withdrawal of US combat forces from the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
