US Halts Attacks at Iran, Road to Diplomacy Open?
The US has halted its attacks on Iran for the first time in two weeks, creating an opportunity for diplomacy. According to Axios, US President Donald Trump ordered the military not to carry out a new round of planned strikes on Friday. The decision came several hours after an Omani delegation arrived in Tehran for talks with Iranian officials. The US had been attacking Iran over the latter's effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz. The development has been welcomed by Iran, which has been under pressure from the US. The Omani delegation's visit is seen as a significant development in the ongoing tensions between the US and Iran. The US had been attacking Iran for the past two weeks, but the halt in attacks has created a window of opportunity for diplomacy. The situation is being closely watched by the international community, with many hoping for a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
