Donald Trump announced a two-week pause on US military action against Iran, aiming for a ceasefire after talks with Pakistani leaders. 

The pause is conditional on Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz, facilitating de-escalation. 

Trump claimed US military goals were met and cited a 10-point Iranian proposal as a negotiation basis. 

The ceasefire hopes come amid escalating strikes and regional tensions in a conflict that has lasted six weeks and caused over 5,000 deaths across multiple countries.
