Senior Pakistani officials are engaged in intensified mediation efforts in
Tehran aimed at preventing further escalation, particularly around the Strait of
Hormuz. Pakistan’s interior minister is visiting Iran for the second time in a
week, signaling increased diplomatic activity. A senior Iranian official told Al

text, while another source cautioned it remains too early to determine whether a
final agreement is within reach.
