Potential Ceasefire Extension Between US and Iran


Dubai: Negotiators from the United States and Iran have reportedly come to a preliminary agreement to prolong the ceasefire for an additional 60 days and initiate discussions regarding Iran's nuclear ambitions, as per a US official who is knowledgeable about the situation.


This official, who requested anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the discussions, indicated that President Donald Trump still needs to approve the proposed memorandum of understanding.


This tentative arrangement arises at a critical time when the already fragile ceasefire between the two nations seems to be under strain.


Earlier on Thursday, the US military accused Iran of breaching the ceasefire after Kuwait reported being attacked following an American strike against Iranian forces. This incident marks the latest escalation in hostilities that jeopardize the ongoing peace negotiations.


The initial details of this tentative agreement were disclosed by a news outlet.
