Pakistan army chief visits Tehran

Munir is meeting with senior Iranian officials to iron out differences and secure an extension to the cessation of hostilities.

Pakistan has emerged as a key facilitator in the conflict, with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif also conducting a regional diplomatic tour.

The negotiations are focused on critical issues including nuclear enrichment and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

While some progress has been made, significant splits remain between Washington and Tehran that could complicate a final peace deal.
