Major Iran ceasefire update expected imminently amid 'good news' following Donald Trump's ultimatum
A major update on a potential ceasefire between the US and Iran is expected imminently with reports of "good news" as President Donald Trump's deadline looms closer.
Pakistan, which is acting as a mediator between the two countries requested that President Trump grant a two-week extension to a deadline he imposed on Tehran to end its blockade of Gulf oil.
A regional source told CNN “some good news is expected from both sides soon” and that discussions were steered directly by Pakistan’s army chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir.
President Trump said he was about to be fully briefed on Pakistan’s two-week deadline extension request, and said of Prime Minister Shabaz Sharif: "I can say this, that I know him very well. He’s a highly respected man, all over."
