In Pakistan, on 8 April 2026, Pakistan's prime minister announced an immediate two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran and invited both sides to talks in Islamabad. The truce came hours before a Trump deadline, and both sides claimed victory. Pakistan said the ceasefire extends 'everywhere', including Lebanon, and a Haaretz source said Iran and Pakistan both understood Lebanon to be part of the truce. Israel's prime minister said he supports a temporary truce if Iran opens the straits.
The White House said Trump is sending a negotiating team, led by Vance and including Witkoff and Kushner, for a first round of talks on Saturday. Anadolu Agency reported that Araghchi and Ghalibaf will attend for Iran. La Repubblica named uranium as the main obstacle to a deal, and Kommersant credited Vance and China for the truce.
