Pakistani security officials said that ground operations and cross‑border attacks along the Afghanistan frontier resulted in the deaths of 29 insurgents. Iran’s foreign minister warned that Israel’s withdrawal from Lebanon and a halt to attacks are prerequisites for any temporary U.S.‑brokered agreement, and Tehran emphasized that safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz still requires coordination with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The United States announced that its naval operations in the region have been halted, allowing commercial vessels to transit the strait, though shipping companies remain skeptical about the security guarantees offered by Washington.
