- Pakistan shared a revised Iranian proposal to end the Middle East war with the United States, a Reuters source said.
- Esmaeil Baghaei confirmed Tehran’s views were conveyed to Washington through Pakistan.
- Donald Trump warned the Iran‑U.S. ceasefire reached in early April was “on life support” after Tehran’s response to a U.S. proposal.
