Pakistan Helps Broker Ceasefire in West Asia Amid Tensions

The situation in West Asia once again became tense on Thursday after the two-week ceasefire agreement was reached after 40 days of war, and it took an explosive turn, but the intervention of the mediator Pakistan has once again put things back on track. Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh himself has confirmed that Iran was about to hit back at Israel on Thursday night after the ceasefire violation, but after the intervention of Pakistan, Iran changed its intentions and withdrew from attacking. In an interview with Fars News Agency, Khatibzadeh said that the ceasefire agreement is in danger due to Israeli attacks on Lebanon. He bluntly said that the US should stop Israeli attacks on Lebanon. The Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister further said that any regional peace must also include Lebanon. He said that the coming hours are "very important." Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Leibzadeh accused Israel of "serious violations" before the ceasefire violation.
