Diplomatic efforts falter
Amid the escalating violence, Iran's Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni is due in Islamabad today to engage with Pakistani officials who previously mediated a now-collapsed interim ceasefire, reports suggested.
Earlier, Tehran had announced it is suspending its commitments under the so-called Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding, accusing the US of violating the framework.
Iran’s deputy foreign minister for legal affairs, Kazem Gharibabadi, said the country’s focus was now on defending itself. Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei warned that repeated US actions had damaged trust in American commitments, saying Washington would face “unforgettable lessons” if it continued its campaign.
Iranian military officials also warned of further retaliation and said the country would maintain control over the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global shipping route.

Iran’s Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni arrived in Islamabad on Monday on an official visit, leading a high-level delegation for talks with Pakistan’s top civilian and military leadership amid evolving regional developments.
Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi received his Iranian counterpart at Islamabad International Airport, where Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry presented a bouquet to the visiting minister.
Iranian Ambassador to Pakistan Reza Amiri Moghadam was also present on the occasion.
Welcoming the visiting dignitary, Naqvi described Momeni as “my brother” and said he hoped the Iranian minister had brought “good news.” He expressed confidence that the visit would strengthen bilateral ties and hoped it would also lead to progress on regional issues.

Background
The visit comes amid heightened regional diplomacy, with Pakistan continuing efforts to facilitate dialogue aimed at easing tensions between Iran and the United States.Earlier on Monday, a Pakistani interior ministry source told AFP that Momeni would hold talks with Pakistani officials during his visit, although no official confirmation was given on whether the trip was directly linked to Pakistan’s mediation efforts.
Pakistan last week reiterated its commitment to encouraging all sides to halt hostilities and resume negotiations under a memorandum of understanding it helped broker last month.
Iran has also indicated that diplomatic contacts with the United States through mediators remain ongoing despite recent military tensions.
Momeni has previously participated in mediation-related discussions and hosted Mohsin Naqvi during the Pakistani minister’s visit to Iran.
