Trump had been approving daily strike plans but did not approve the plan submitted on the 25th and instead ordered a pause; it is unclear whether the halt is a one-day measure or the start of a longer suspension. Hours before the order an Omani delegation arrived in Tehran to negotiate arrangements to reopen navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. Two regional sources said talks have progressed and Oman and Iran could reach an agreement by the weekend, after which Trump would decide whether to accept it.
