After weeks of intense bombings, the United States and Iran have not engaged in any attacks for three consecutive days, signaling a potential shift towards peace. This pause follows a period of escalating tensions that raised fears of an all-out war in the Middle East. Two regional officials, speaking anonymously, revealed that mediators from Qatar and Pakistan are actively working to bring the U.S. and Iran back to the negotiating table. Their efforts aim to restore an interim ceasefire agreement that had been disrupted by recent hostilities. This development offers a glimmer of hope for de-escalation and renewed dialogue between the two nations.
