The United States, Iran and regional mediators are discussing a possible 45-day ceasefire as part of a broader plan to end hostilities, according to separate reports by Axios and Reuters.⁣ ⁣ The proposal under discussion reportedly outlines a two-phase process. The first phase would involve a temporary ceasefire lasting about 45 days, during which negotiations on a permanent settlement would continue. A second phase would focus on formally ending the conflict. The ceasefire could be extended if more time is needed for talks.⁣ ⁣ The reported framework, referred to as the ‘Islamabad Accord’, would include immediate steps to reopen the strait and allow 15–20 days for further negotiations. ⁣ ⁣ #usiran #ceasefire #straitofhormuz #iran #middleeast #israel
