US President Donald Trump has paused attacks on Iran indefinitely, following a request by Pakistani mediators. The US Navy's blockade of Iran's trade by sea remains in place. The Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy corridor, remains blocked, with three ships reportedly hit by gunfire. Tehran has rejected the move, viewing the blockade as an act of war. Pakistan's efforts to salvage the truce saw officials prepare for talks in Islamabad, but Iran failed to confirm its participation. The conflict, which began on February 28, has resulted in over 5,000 civilian deaths across the region.
