Iran’s delegation trip to Islamabad faced repeated delays due to relentless strikes on Lebanon, Press TV reports citing a source. Tehran cautioned the U.S. that ongoing Israeli attacks could torpedo negotiations, prompting Washington to curb strikes on Beirut. The channel stated Iran would abandon U.S. talks in Pakistan—focused on conflict resolution and a Tehran-Washington pact—if Israel resumes Lebanon bombings.
An Israeli strike hit an ambulance in southern Lebanon. Social media images depict the vehicle utterly destroyed. Media and eyewitnesses report the entire medical team killed.
Iran will reopen the Strait of Hormuz once war ends, per Supreme Leader envoy Abdul Majid Hakeem Ilahi to TASS from India. With conflict persisting, Iran maintains control. He stressed Tehran seeks no Hormuz clashes or crises, aiming for cordial ties with all nations.
Tehran demands reparations for U.S. and Israeli attack damages, threatening asset seizures if denied, Ilahi told TASS. He cited one of ten Iranian ceasefire points—accepted by Washington—mandating compensation, vowing Tehran will enforce it. He labeled shipping toll rumors at Hormuz as mere speculation, with no official decision.
