US and Iran Implement Two-Week 'Double-Sided' Ceasefire Following Pakistani Mediation
Following a diplomatic intervention by Pakistan, the United States and Iran have agreed to a 14-day cessation of hostilities. President Trump announced the pause in Operation Epic Fury after threats of massive strikes on Iranian infrastructure. The agreement seeks to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and halt bombing campaigns while negotiators meet in Islamabad to finalize a long-term resolution. However, the truce remains fragile with both sides accusing each other of early protocol violations.
