- Iran and the United States agreed to a two-week ceasefire, announced just before Donald Trump's deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
- The truce aims to provide time for negotiators to finalise a more enduring peace agreement, with talks between US and Iranian representatives scheduled to begin on Friday in Islamabad, mediated by Pakistan.
- Under the agreement, Iran will cease counterattacks and ensure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, while the US will halt its attacks.
- Disputes remain, notably whether the ceasefire extends to Lebanon, with Israel saying it does not, contrary to Pakistan's assertion.
- Donald Trump referred to a 10-point proposal from Iran, initially deeming it “workable” but later “fraudulent”, while both sides claimed the deal as a victory.
