Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is requesting that President Trump extend his Iran deadline by at least two weeks, while also asking that Iran open the Strait of Hormuz, according to Reuters.

Sirens and explosions heard in the last few minutes over Bahrain, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates, as Iran launches yet another ballistic missile attack targeting the Gulf Nations, with this being the first attack in roughly a week against Qatar’s capital of Doha.

Some kind of “deal” between Iran and the United States is expected to be closed by midnight tonight, regional sources tell CNN, with the source stating that “some good news is expected from both sides soon” and that discussions were steered directly by Pakistan’s Chief of the Army Staff, Field Marshal Asim Munir.

Following reports of a possible “breakthrough” in peace talks between Iran and the United States, mediated by Pakistan only hours before the deadline set by President Trump. Iran’s Ambassador to Pakistan, Reza Amiri Moghadam, has stated in a post on X:

Chances of a ceasefire between Iran and the United States have skyrocketed in the last few hours on Polymarket, following reports of a possibly “breakthrough” in peace talks mediated by Pakistan, with chances of a ceasefire before the end of April currently sitting at over 50%.

American journalist Shelly Kittleson has been officially released from captivity and turned over to the Iraqi Government, after being kidnapped last week in Baghdad by the Iranian-backed Iraqi paramilitary group Kataib Hezbollah, senior officials tell CNN.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump has announced that, following a request by key Pakistani decision-makers to extend the deadline for strikes on Iranian energy and power infrastructure, he has agreed to a two-week ceasefire, where he has agreed to “suspend the bombing and attack of Iran.” Per the president, this is two-sided ceasefire, but it remains to be seen whether the ceasefire will be honored by Iran.

Mere seconds after U.S. President Donald J. Trump announced what he calls a two-sided ceasefire with Iran, ballistic missile launches against Israel by Iran have again been detected.

According to CNN, citing a senior White House official, Israel has also agreed to the two week ceasefire and will pause strikes on Iran for the duration of the ceasefire. This comes amidst new ballistic missile launches from Iran against Israel minutes ago.

According to The New York Times, Iran has agreed to the ceasefire announced by President Donald J. Trump. The move was reportedly approved by the new supreme leader, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei.

Iran’s Supreme National Security Council claims that the U.S. agreed to a 10-point plan, including but not limited to the cessation of all sanctions since the Bush era and the Iranian control of the Strait of Hormuz. Given credible reporting that such points will be discussed during negotiations following the ceasefire, it’s yet unlikely that the U.S. agreed to these conditions preemptively.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei has ordered the Iranian Armed Forces, including elements of the Artesh and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), to cease all further firing against Israel and the other countries across the Middle East, according to the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB).

Under the two-week ceasefire plan agreed to tonight by both Iran and the United States, both Iran and Oman are permitted to charge fees on commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz, according to the Associated Press, with officials stating that the money received by Iran will be used to rebuild the country following the recent strike campaign by Israel and the United States.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt calls tonight’s two-week ceasefire with Iran “a victory for the United States that President Trump and our incredible military made happen,” adding that, “President Trump got the Strait of Hormuz reopened.”

Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, who for the last several months has heavily advocated for the ongoing war against Iran for which he insisted that President Trump did not need the permission of Congress, is now calling for a “congressional review process” for any ceasefire or peace agreement between Iran and the United States.

U.S. President Trump spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Pakistani Field Marshal Asim Munir to close the two-week ceasefire deal with Iran Tuesday night, with Israel having reportedly agreed to the contours of the ceasefire deal, a White House official told CBS News.
