Islamabad, Pakistan

Mediators proposed a 10-day ceasefire between the United States and Iran that could put the June Islamabad memorandum back on track, according to reports cited by ING and Reuters. Iran's interior minister, Eskandar Momeni, carrying a letter from President Pezeshkian, met Pakistan's army chief Asim Munir and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Islamabad the same day, and Pakistani officials expected Tehran's reply.

Why it matters

Iran's foreign ministry had said a day earlier that mediators were passing messages despite the fighting, but Washington did not publicly take up the idea and U.S. strikes continued that night.
