Iran’s Parliamentary Speaker Mohammad Baqer Ghalibaf says his delegation raised “forward-looking” initiatives during ceasefire negotiations in Pakistan, but the United States failed to gain the trust of the delegation in the talks. 
US Vice President JD Vance left Islamabad after saying the talks with Iran ended without a deal, claiming he had put forward a “final and best offer”. 
Iran has denied US claims that two of its ships transited the Strait of Hormuz, warning that any attempt by military vessels to pass through the waterway would be met with a “strong response”. 
Israel continues to strike southern Lebanon, with at least 13 people killed in an attack on the town of Teffaha.
