What Prof Jiang Xueqin said
“if America and Israel continues its bombing campaign, which I suspect it will for the next few months”
Our assessment
A ceasefire was announced on 23 June and took effect 24 June 2025, six days after this was said, and no US or Israeli strike hit Iran again until 28 February 2026, an eight month gap that runs far past the 29 September 2025 deadline. Israeli bombing of Gaza, Lebanon and Syria did continue through 2025, but the Iran campaign the claim named stopped within a week.
