JOHANNESBURG - Iran has launched missile strikes on US bases in Qatar in retaliation against attacks on its nuclear sites at the weekend.
While there are still fears of a wider escalation of the conflict, an Iranian official has confirmed that Tehran has agreed to a ceasefire.
But the country's foreign minister says that all depends on Israel ending its attacks.
To discuss the implications, we spoke with Na'eem Jeenah, Senior Researcher at the Mapungubwe Institute for Strategic Reflection.
