President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday that the ceasefire with Iran will be extended to allow more time for negotiations, while the US will continue its naval blockade of Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz. This decision was made just hours before the ceasefire was set to expire and follows a breakdown in anticipated peace talks, which Trump attributed to internal conflicts within the Iranian government. He stated that the extension was requested by Pakistan's leaders, including Field Marshal Asim Munir and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. The US military will maintain its readiness while the blockade remains in effect until Iran submits a unified proposal for peace.
