🇺🇸🇮🇷🇵🇰 - Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirms the U.S. negotiation team of JD Vance, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner in Islamabad.

Negotiations will begin on Saturday morning at Pakistani local time.

🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡- Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt says she is unaware of the current explosions in Tehran.

To recap the developments of the last 18 hours:

A ceasefire was preemptively declared by the Trump administration just short of his 8pm deadline last night after intervention from Pakistan and China. Iran later confirmed that a ceasefire had been reached and that it would allow shipping to resume in the Strait.

The US side claimed that offensive operations would pause for two weeks while negotiations continued with Iran in Pakistan to cement a comprehensive deal. In the meantime the Strait would open but under the control of the IRGC, which will collect revenue from the Strait.

However, Iran claimed that the US had agreed to a more thorough 10-point plan which had been proffered earlier in the week which included recognition of Iran's right to enrich uranium as well as a cessation of Israeli strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon.

Israel is purportedly furious that they were excluded from these negotiations and denied that they agreed to a ceasefire in Lebanon. Israel conducted more strikes on Lebanon this morning, wounding +700 and killing 87 people.

In response to this purported violation of Iran's 10-point deal, Iran has now re-closed the Strait. Strikes are currently ongoing in Iran, although the US denies responsibility. Reports that the UAE or Saudi Arabia are responsible.

🇮🇷⚡️- The explosions across Iran were related to air defenses active against unknown drones, no confirmation of airstrikes.

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇶⚡️- "Since the enemy is treacherous and violates the agreement with Iran, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq will return to discipline him and make him regret it." - Akram al-Kaabi, Secretary-General of Iraqi Harakat al-Nujaba.

He states that the previously workable basis for negotiation has been violated, and that a ceasefire and further negotiations are now unreasonable.
