US, Iran agree to two-week ceasefire as Trump pulls back on his threats
The US and Iran on Wednesday agreed to a two-week ceasefire, reaching a deal just hours before President Donald Trump's deadline and threatened destruction of Iranian "civilisation" if Tehran failed to unblock the Strait of Hormuz.
Details of the Pakistan-brokered agreement are set to be negotiated in Islamabad on Friday.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the truce deal does not include Lebanon.
