Islamabad deadline for Iran-US deal ends
Lebanon is awaiting today the end of the sixty-day period set by the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding to reach a final agreement between Iran and the United States, despite ongoing tensions and disagreements between the two sides. After the memorandum was signed and operations were temporarily halted, clashes and reciprocal shelling between Iran and the United States have resumed, alongside escalating threats to close the Strait of Hormuz. Iran insists on closing the strait and linking this to the lifting of the blockade against it, while the United States has not lifted its maritime blockade as scheduled. Efforts by mediators to revive the Islamabad Agreement continue amid rising military and diplomatic escalation and a worsening of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
